I am running windows vista business(came with the pc) and want to get my hands on windows media center. Is there any way i can do this without upgrading to the 'ultimate' package?

You cant add media centre in any practical way. If it suits you, you can run mediaportal or GB-PVR which are free.

Also you can use commercial software such as SageTV
