Windows Media Centre 2005
Im wanting to stream media to my xbox360 and understand the only way of doing this is using WMC2005. Can i just install this over windows XP. Im not going to lose any data etc am I? Hows the best way of setting all this up?

Not sure how stable it'll be if you install it over normal XP. It's always better to do a fresh install. How about partitioning your existing HD and doing a fresh install of Media Centre on that? Or better (and easier) buy a new HD and install it on there, then you'll have the option of either.

As said though, it is preferrable to do a clean install.

If you do a search for x360 and divx playback/streaming, there is loads of stuff out there.
Just like Microsoft to do half a job
