I think you can't , unless you have the deb packages cached in /var/cache/apt/archives/
If so, you will need to uninstall your current version and put those local packages.
There can't be 2 differents version on the same PPA

ok added only the Hardy PPA software sources (both of them) and now when I search XBMC i get only skins, i did apt-get update & apt-get upgrade and still nothing but skins under the Package manager. Am I screwing up? This is starting to drive me nuts, 2 damn days straight. I keep trying to adopt linux, and keep getting fubar by stuff like this. Is there a older distro i should try?

I believe you have an amd64 . If it's the case, you won't find anything in the stable PPA.
From Friday till yesterday night, the daily build was failing. But now you should find the xbmc package if you search it.

Oh! My apologies wattazoum, i misunderstood.
I installed using Wubi, I assumed it would pull the correct distro, and that an AMD64 distro would not install on my system, of course im just guessing. I will do a seperate download of the I386 version of Ubuntu, then place it in the inwstall folder of Wubi. From what im told that will force it to use the ISO in the folder and not download one.
Before I do all that is there anyway I can tell what distro was installed on my laptop (I know, serious idiot question, again my apologies).

Might wanna "uname -m" in a console first before going to the trouble.

Anyone else having problems with TV Scrapers? Not identifying jack right now for episodes. Some of them will pull show info, with some prodding, but not identify episodes. It was working fine for me a bit ago, with the same setup, same shows, and now isn't. So no library mode =[
