This link might hold a solution:

Failing the above, have you done all the usual stuff like malware/virus scans or even a 'system restore'?

I would suggest you to disable and then enable windows Media Center on expanding Media features from the Windows on or off features option and check if this resolves the issue.

See Screenshot:

You could try running the System file checker?

Right click on Cmd prompt and run as admin. Then type:

sfc /scannow

Now press enter. The file checker will run through checking the integrity of system files, if any are corrupted it will attempt to repair.
Also have you checked the event logs found via the Admin tools?

Hi westentertainer,

if you check out the screen shot I provided you'll see how you can get to the 'Event Viewer'.
You'll notice that using this one see where apps have errored out or events worthy of note. So the next time Media centre crashes note the time and check out the viewer.
Please post what the event say's or post a screenshot.
