Box: BBC and Silverlight

When I try to add the BBC News Widget to my sidebar I get a notice that says "this gadget requires Microsoft Silverlight.  Click to install, add new gadget".  I have Silverlight running.  But I have reinstalled in all cases, restarted my browser, BBC added and got the same message.

I then completely uninstalled Silverlight with Revo Uninstaller, downloaded again and installed.  Tried to add the gadget to the BBC and got the same message.

Any ideas appreciated.

I'm using Vista Home Premium 64 on a HP Touchsmart.

  • Adobe Flash Player (Vista) internet ((spécifiquement ferme ville,, sur facebook)) a box appears and tells me that there is a problem with an add-on that was installed called flash10c.ocx

    original title: Flash Player

    I have installed Adobe Flash Player on my PC (Vista), and every time I want the internet ((spécifiquement ferme ville,, sur facebook)) a box appears and tells me that there is a problem with an add-on that was installed called flash10c.ocx. How can I solve this problem? I tried everything I could think of. I deleted my cookies (and Add-ons), re-installed Adobe Flash Player and nothing works.

    What browser are you using IE or Firefox or others?  Sometimes special versions of Flash are required for browsers, and besides, IE 64-bit does not support modules including Flash, she, that is to say, it takes the 32-bit version, even on a 64-bit machine.

    Take a look at IE / tools / manage add-ons and make sure that 'Shockwave Flash Object' is enabled.

    Check that you downloaded the correct version in the first place.

  • Download problems - "Preparing to copy" box appears, and the download stops.

    Hello good Samaritan! :^)

    I will describe the most recent appearance:

    I tried to download the vines 'Video Vacant"single by 1. By clicking DOWNLOAD and 2. Clicking on SAVE (according to instructions).

    Download proceeded normally (and quickly) until a "Preparing to copy" box appeared and stopped the download.

    At this point the download box showed: download.sonybmgdigital.com TheVines_VacantVideo.mp3

    (Note that the download 'bar' is green).

    Estimated time: 1 second (6.68 MB copied 5.77 MB)

    Download at: C:\User...\TheVines_VacantVideo.mp3

    Transfer rate: 1.89 Mbps

    The box of "Preparing to copy" showed: copy preparation

    (Note that the 'bar' has a section of green moving continuously from left to right).

    go to

    0 items (0 byte) to discover...

    Nothing happens. (I've waited 1 hour the second time). It is finally necessary to restart the computer to clear the screen. (Clicking Cancel in the box "Preparing to copy" provides you with a 'Cancellation' box that also does nothing).

    I had the same problem last week to try to download a program from another Web site. (I WAS eventually able to download the program by clicking OPEN instead of SAVE). Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated! :^)

    Thank you!
