WinTV-PVR 500MCE in XP Pro

Is the WinTV 500MCE compatible with standard Windows XP Pro or just the MCE 2005 version? I want to get one for dual tuner capability but want to make sure it will fork before I spend the bucks.

Thanks!

Great, what drivers do you use? Do you use the MCE 2005 drivers that come with it?

I use my 2 PVR-500MCE's with Win2K so it doesn't even need to be WinXP.

Thanks for the input. All the information leads you to think it will only work with MCE.
