According to recent information posted by uneasysilence.com the Xbox 360 HD-DVD add-on is working on XP, Vista and to some extent Mac OSX. Toshiba device drivers have been released which allow XP to recognize the Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive when connected to your PC via USB. It appears that Windows Vista already includes the required drivers to take advantage of the Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive.Once you have the Xbox 360 HD-DVD add-on drive connected to your PC and the drivers installed you will be able to not only view the contents of a HD-DVD but playback HD-DVD movies. Uneasysilence.com found a version of WinDVD that would support playback of HD-DVD movies.

If Windows wants drivers, drivers it will get. After installing these drivers magic started to happen. The HD-DVD drive was now recognized in Windows XP. Now we needed a piece of software to actually play the HD-DVD. And after some hard work we managed to find a version of WinDVD 8 that was able to play an HD-DVD movie even on my low end hardware (Granted with some stuttering).
