no Paint or Calculator programs in XP Media Center? (this issue has been resolved)

1537 Views 14 Replies 9 Participants Last post by  Brandon
I recently inherited a laptop from my father, which is running XP Media Center edition.

I have discovered that it seems to be missing both the calculator and paint programs!

Does anyone know of a way that I can get those programs and put them on?

Or, for that matter, of comparable (or better) programs that would do the same functions?

I have a calculator widget that I use, so that's not so important but it'd still be nice to have.

TIA

gimp is about 100X more powerful than MSPaint, and may not be what you're looking for. Although I don't know why anyone would want to use Paint, when there are so many other options out there... I'm sure theres a free or Open Source Paint clone out there, but again I ask... why? Get a serious graphics program like gimp or Paint Shop Pro...
I use PaintShopPro for all of my Graphics work. I tried to like Gimp, but I couldn't wrap my brain around the interface. PSP makes more sense to me (but then again, I've been using it for years...)
