Cannot access controls in Windows Media Center after watching live TV

original title: I can't find the controls for windows media center so when I watch live TV and have done I have to turn my pc off power then back to use my pc

If I'm watching tv using the media library, that I need to stop and restart to be able to use my pc when I want to stop watching the tv

I don't know why you would not be able to see the controls, but to stop the programme press ALT + F4 and it needs to close the active window.

I hope this helps.

  • CREATIX card TV no longer works for Windows Media Center after you install Vista Edition Home Premium to Windows 7 Professional

While my computer was running Vista, I could use the tuner TV SAA7131 Creatix card in my computer to watch digital TV British, that is to say Freeview. Before my upgrade to Windows 7, I checked all my drivers would be compatible, and the Advisory program told me that they would be sufficient. However, when I tried to setup of the library to receive a TV signal, the implementation will not progress beyond the screen "Considering television signals" Percentage of completion bar gets to about 90% and then does not move, or entirely 100%, but the screen does not change, and if I try to return to the main menu screen, Windows Media Center crashes with the 'circle of rotation of loading"and does not change.

    I reinstalled Cyberlink Home Cinema after realization of the Medion TV improve extra that comes with it, but that didn't seem to help. The same problem persists.

    I have still the disk with the drivers on, but I'm not sure how to reinstall the drivers using the disk, because the record for drivers TV Tuner does she not an executable file, just a series of system files, application extensions and the DAT files.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    You must find the CTX driver version in the code of your tv card provider (poster Device Manager it under hardware ID in the Details tab) in the list of suppliers PDF in the FAQ section of the site Creatix. Then, you can download the right CTX driver from the support section. Is there a Windows 7 driver for my SAA7131 card.

  • Satellite P500-153 - need remote control for Windows Media Center

    I have a satellite P500-153, but without a remote mainenance (for housing expresscard).
    The suplier said I can buy it at the internetstore of toshiba, but I can't find a few anywhere!

    Maybe someone knows where I can get it or can give me the produktkey / the name of the remote maintenance.

    Hello

    As much as I know a few P500D Satellite P500 and X 500 series have been equipped with a remote control of size or a size slim (for express card slot) remote
    But as I said that some and not all units contains this remote.

    I think you should get in touch with a local ASP in your country.
    The authorized service provider could provide a compatible remote control.
    If this part is not in stock then the guys could order directly from Toshiba.

  • WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER - WINDOWS 7 - COMPUTER CRASHES

    Whenever I turn on windows media center to watch live TV, after about 10 minutes of watching TV, my computer crashes / turns off.  I have to hold in the power button for a while turns back on after that is the case of the computer. I get no error message, it's just completely off / hangs the computer.

    Dell Inspiron Intel Core duo

    Windows 7 Home premium

     

    I got so sick of this, I spent the last few hours trying all sorts of things.

    This seems to have solved that problem.

    First of all, I went to my monitor of resources because of the above message on the video memory. I have never in line or running anything while I watched the live TV on windows media center. As I thought, everything was fine. I had a lot of resources free etc, but while watching I noticed my McAfee security software and decided to disable real-time scanning and firewall. (I never try to watch live TV on windows media center all in line.) I always turn off my network card when I'm not online anyway so felt ok with turning the firewall and scanning off.)

    And guess what! for the first time since I use Windows Media Center, it has not crashed my computer. So, it looks like Microsoft and McAfee need to understand this. I tested it several times and each time McAfee is on and working when turned off, it blocks. It will be a headache to have to remember to turn it on when I go online and off when I want to watch the tv media Center in windows.

    I suggest to have the people to do this step first before making do them all the steps you gave me above.  We hope to see some sort of update of Microsoft and McAfee for this question.

  • Error: "Tuner not found" with Windows Media Center

    Original title: someone at - there a solution to this problem of Tuner not found with Windows Media Center? I tried for several years to find an answer to this embarrassing problem without success.

    I did just about everything, including a restoration of the complete system without success. It would be nice to be able to use my Windows Media Center to watch live TV and record programs I would like to see later.

    There is a great thread to
     
    with people have reported this problem with this tuner.
     
    Unfortunately, it looks like the only solution people have found is to replace the
    Tuner with another brand.
     
    I don't know if it's the hardware failure or something else, but looking at this
    wire, if it was ME, I cut my losses and replace the tuner.
