Hi Jon.

i386 is a 32-bit architecture, you are using a 64-bit OS designed to run on a 64-bit architecture. You have downloaded the 32-bit version of Me TV but it's not designed to run on your 64-bit system. You need to download the 64-bit version of Me TV. Look for the AMD64 version, this applies even if you are using an Intel CPU. It is my understanding that Intel implemented the AMD64 standard hence AMD64 applies to both AMD and Intel CPUs.

Thanks,

Michael

Hi Michael,
