• How can I reinstall the Windows Media Center Gadget on my PC with Windows 7, 64-bit?

  How can I reinstall the Windows Media Center Gadget on my PC with Windows 7, 64-bit?  I had left it one day and now I don't know where he is. I went into the control panel and tried to 'Restore the Gadget', but he said it was not something to restore. I don't know how to get the file from one account to another, if that's what I'm supposed to do. I just want to know how to get the original back that came when I downloaded Media Center for the first time (that I tried to do it again. "But it did not help at all).

  Thank you.

  It's actually pretty easy if you are in the control panel for programs

  Control Panel - programs-

  There is an element under the gadgets 'restore the desktop gadgets installed with windows' which includes Media Center gadget

• Can no longer watch HBO on Media center

  In recent days, I get a "Restricted content" screen when you watch HBO after only a few seconds.

  I used Media Center on my Vista machine with an ATI all-in-Wonder hung in a box of cable for years without incident. What has changed?

  Everyone on the forums is shouting at this topic, but above all it is recording and playback issues.  I even can't my channels to work in Live TV.

  I don't own a TV.  I watch all my shows through my Vista machine so I'm basically getting ripped off for the money I spend on the strings.

  We need a fix or work around now!

  I'm so smart, sometimes I amaze myself!

  (1) my yellow screen 'restricted content' is doing for my color combination settings (hi contrast black) rather than the default schema.

  (2) I am now able to watch HBO!

  I created my guide of Media Center for Cox Cable in Phoenix and POOF I'm back in business.

  I don't know why this is, because I never took the penalty set up before that I do not use it in any case.

  Or use the remote or breakout box that came with my system.

  Thank you for your patience to answer my rants. And hope it helps others in the future.

  Sincerely

  Movie from Netflix in Media Center

  I have windows vista media center home premium 64-bit version. I was able to watch movies through the center of media until recently. It automatically pulls up to my account, etc. in queue, but when I click on a movie to play it takes me to a login screen. I try to re-login, but it goes just to the same screen and will not play. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but to no avail... same problem. I even uninstalled and reinstalled silver light, but it doesn't work anymore. If anyone has had this problem and have they been able to solve it? I can watch them via Explorer very well, but I want to be able to use media center. Help, please!

• Windows 7. How can I remove the Windows media Center programs recommended in the "Open with" section?

  I select which application (Word, Excel, etc.), they all open with Windows Media Center. This happened recently and I don't know how to cancel it. I see the Windows Media Center in the 'Open with' box where it asks you to "choose the program you want to use to open this file. How I remove it from the section "recommended programs"? I see that Internet Explorer is also in this section. What should be there as well? What actually belongs to this group?

  "I see the Windows Media Center in the 'Open with' box where it asks you to"choose the program you want to use to open this file"." How I remove it from the section "recommended programs"? »

  A pretty easy regedit should remove an application from the section "recommended programs". Here is a procedure step by step on how to do it. Unfortunately, I don't think that will solve your problem. What seems actually to have occurred is either your .lnk .exe (or maybe both) have inadvertently been associated with WMC. Out of the list of the programs recommended for the open with dialog box will not change. In fact, the next time that you open the program, it will open in WMC and add automatically return a program recommended in the open with dialog box.

  There really should not be whatever it is that you open a .lnk or .exe with because you really don't want to open them... you want to run. To determine if the .lnk or .exe associated with wrong, you can either watch the extension file associations in the control panel > programs, or you can see if it's a shortcut or the actual executable file that does. Need to know who, or if she is at the same time, in order to complete the fix.

  Once you know it, this link will show you how to restore the default file type link. Matter of fact, now that I think of it, it wouldn't hurt to just restore default settings for .lnk and .exe.

  "I see that Internet Explorer is also in this section. What should be there as well? What actually belongs to this group? " I may be wrong, but I do not believe, you should really see anything in the open with dialog for a .lnk or .exe. Again, you don't want to really not open them... you want to run. The shortcut .lnk file goes to the executable and runs the .exe program.

• Can I use the Windows Media Center already purchased with newly installed Win 8 Pro?

  Hello, community.  I've never really had to ask any questions or messages on the community forums, but simply, I can't find the answer to this,

  So Microsoft was offerring winder 8 Pro at prices extremely low at launch.  Another bonus is that you could sign up for a free installation of Windows Media Center.  I have a TB tuner card in one of my places with two ports so I can watch TV or it is apparent from the file on my PC as a DVR and it worked perfectly.   However, recently, my c:\ died and I had to buy a new one and I got a new copy of Windows 8 Pro.  I was hoping that my account name Microsoft would allow me to re - download Media Center but it looks like I'll have to buy it now.

  Is it the way it is or am I missing something that could restore my MWC installation?

  Thanks in advance for any answers.

  Hello

  How did you install operating system Windows 8, which was previously an upgrade installation or custom?

  If you have Windows Media Center free of charge then you would have received a product key for the same thing, I recommend you to use the same product key to activate or add Windows Media center to a new installation of Windows 8 PRO.

  See the following Microsoft article.

  M

  It is not advisable to put a m1070n HP (PC098A) running with Windows XP online.  Windows XP ceased to be supported on 08/04/2014.  There is no OS updates, patches, virus or security updates. Read this page.  You couldn't install WIndows 7, as HP does not offer drivers beyond Win XP.  I'm sorry I bit on the bad news, but your request on a 10 year old machine.

  Hello, Legobookkirby

  To connect your DVR Media Center, you need to use a tuner card. As far as I know, there are no wireless solutions to do this.

  How can I get the media center on windows xp

  In addition to the above answer, if your system meets the requirements you could install Windows 7. Has built the media center. It is really a lot like Xp in my opinion. You can run the Windows 7 compatibility tool to see if your computer is capable of handling. Although the requirements of the system call of 1 GB of ram, I know that several cases where the user has only 512 MB and the system went very well.

• I can triple booot Windows XP Media Center edition, Windows 7 RC1 and XP Professional?

  I installed Windows 7 in another partition on my hard drive with windows XP media edition Center on the other. I want to install a new copy of XP on another partition but windows will start Manager work with 3 installs OS.
  Thank you

  Mattacrazy108,

  You can have three different installations of an operating system to boot from. However, that being said, if you have installed Windows 7 it would be no easy way to get the third XP OS on the machine. You must uninstall the current two operating systems on your computer. From there, you would need to format and install first either XP Pro, then Media Center verse or vise. After these two operating systems have been installed, you can then install Windows 7.

  I hope this helps. Let me know if you have any questions.
