Says Windows 8. Is that Home? Pro? Ultimate? 32-bit? 64-bit? Has HDMI output, and Media Center only comes with Win8 Pro or better.

It comes with Windows 8 Pro (Professional) 64 bit. It does have an HDMI port. I don't know about Media Center, I never cared for it so I have not looked into it.

It is Windows 7 64-bit home edition. Not professional. Great computer. Upgrade hard drive to Crucial m4 256 gb as well.

No, but you can buy the add-on Windows 8.1 Pro Media Center pack ( $9.99 on the Microsoft site... http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-8/feature-packs .

I'm currently running Windows 8 Pro Media Center Edition, on this notebook (NP350V5C-T01US) with 16GB of G.SKILL DDR3 1600 (PC12000) RAM; 2 SODIMM's of 8GB each. The motherboard on this laptop is not limited to 8GB; as both the Intel chipset and i-7 mobile CPU support at least 16GB, if not more.

That's funny, because mine came with Windows 7 Home 32-bit and only 2 gb of ram. I paid $200 for it. Make sure you check with each individual seller to see what they're selling you.

The old version is windows 8 or 8 with media pro both have available free downloads to upgrade to the new 8.1 or you will have to buy the windows 8.1 Full Install I beleive that it runs about 120 dollars at most retail stores ...Just as a side note you need to make sure that you have windows 7 or later before you purchase you cannot do the install from the other operating systems .Also a word to the wise although your system might meet all the requirements Microsoft didnt bother to tell everybody that their new windows isent compatible with some processor chips (example the dell dimmensions 8300 pentium 4) processor chip wont allow you to to switch to nk which it needs to run the system some processors wont work with this system make sure to check all your specs befor purchase

Yes, the one I got on January 9 came with pre-installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, and it contained Windows 8 system recovery disks, which I suppose you would later use to upgrade to Windows 8.

Windows Media Center on my HTPC doesn't respond to it so I'm going to say probably not.

I installed this WinTV-HVR-2250 last night on Win 8 Pro 64 bit. There is a download on the support web page for this card at Hauppauge.com that addresses an issue with Media Center. The setup in Media Center goes fine until it scans for channels and reports fewer than expected or none found. Media Center did not report finding the analog cable channels in my case. The support document instructs you to ignore that and go into the Guide configuration in Media Center to add the channels. I did this and it worked. The high definition channels look fantastic.

there is no indication from the manufacture, so you could goto there website and look see if they have drivers or offer information about it. Sense I refuse to upgrade my media center computer to windows 8 I couldn't tell you for sure.

I would know the answer to that. I've had trouble getting it to support Windows 8.

It comes with 64bit win 7 installed. It also has slots for cards. It has on board video with a VGA connection along with a HDMI connection. I would not recommend this PC for gaming even with a higher end card. The power supply may have to be replaced and another fan installed.

It's important to note that Windows 8 does NOT come with Windows Media Center. MS claims that it's a $10 add-on, but that only applies to Windows 8 Pro, which this isn't. To get media center functionality on ANY Windows 8 machine you buy at a store, you have to buy the Pro Pack, which is a whopping $100. This is a bait and switch in my book.

No sure, although when I check PC info, it says Windows 8, So 'm assuming just the consumer version.
