Neil, when you say Windows media center does not recognize it, do you mean as a monitor or as the HDTV. What does it or does it not do? thanks

Your computer will not interface with the TV tuner in this monitor. You need to hook up cable, satellite or an antenna to see TV. WMP(Win Media Player) will not recognize your TV tuner, either. This monitor was designed for you to use as a regular monitor for your computer and then switch to regular TV viewing.
