Recently I reformatted my computer.. Now I don't have Windows Media Center anymore. I have Windows 7 Ultimate.

I want Media Center so I can watch tv with a usb tuner.

How do I get it back?

thanks!

Just search for it in the start menu, it will show up. If not search on Microsoft somewhere. The only other reason it would not be there is if your version of windows doesn't have MC included on the disk.

Try going to Control Panel, and make sure icons are showing. The go to Programs & Features > Turn Windows Features On or Off. Go down to Media Features, and click the plus sign next to it - make sure Windows Media Centre is checked.
