Cannot eject the dvd after you download Premiere Elements on Windows 7
DVD does not eject after the download is complete.
With Windows 7 to disc 4 also download?
Home screen doesn't have an icon "open a project".
Install the first Elements, Photoshop Elements
For specific questions about the use, ask in the ESP / EPP forums. If the disc cannot be ejected, it means that it is still used by some process which, in turn, could mean that your installation not finished never well. Restart the system and try again then.

Cannot read the DVD with Windows Media Player
Running WIndows Server 2008 R2. Desktop experience is responsible. In my view, that it includes Windows Media Player V12.
Try to play the DVD. The message "setting resolution". Setting resolution does not help.
Installed K-Lite Codec Pack full. Get the same message on the resolution setting. Uninstall K - Lite Codec Pack now I get ' WMP cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.
I'm a novice and dangerous, so no "step-by-steps" would be greatly appreciated.
Hi MarkMann,
Your question of Windows is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Server on TechNet. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows Server forum.

I bought windows 7 in a store, but my windows xp cannot read the dvd. can I download 7 and use the product key, rather than buy it again? I bought an old compaq desktop computer, and I want to update.
It's probably too late because you have unsealed the package, but as you have relatively minor glitch of the material do not have a DVD player, did you use the (free) Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to determine whether your computer hardware is capable of running Windows 7?

DVD decoder not installed?
I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.
A few weeks ago, I played DVD on my computer. I would like to know what is happening. Any ideas/suggestions?I tried to play one of the same DVDs I played before... same message. Nothing to my knowledge has been removed from my computer and I'm the only one with access... "very confused.
Thanks if anyone can help.
Yes, and if you install the utility on your system, you'll see all decoders.
The utility will also tell you if a decoder is compatible or not.
Using Media Player version 10 or 11?
the utility tells me I have no decoder... the only thing I can think is that if I actually deleted it... I rarely remove anything because I do not add a lot... but it is possible a few weeks ago, I have to get rid of some things (I'm quite cautious because I'm not an expert). It is the Media Player version 11, I was trying to use... but I rebooted now 10 to see if there was something to update related that mess.
because I used the VLC Player successfully, I have not yet tried Windows Media Player (since WMP reloading and load the codec pack)
So great to have the entry of a person who knows what he's doing. Thanks again. I will try the Windows Media Player later and see if I have his use of return.
Have a great day!
