Cannot play rise of nations on windows 7
Help! I buy CDs of RoN and install it on my laptop but it wan't work! Simply pop up an alert to log in with administrator privileges if you please and try again... I want to play... Please someone help!
It seems that the issue is either:
- You are not logged under an account with administrative rights on the computer
- You are logged on as administrator, but user account control is disabled, and the installation files are running as a standard user
If you are not logged as an administrator, but you know the credentials of the administrator account, you can:
- Log in as that account and install the program, and then try to play normally under your regular account
- Log you into that account and give your ordinary account admin rights
- When you go to run the program or installation files, right-click on the file and select "Run as Administrator"
If logged in as an administrator, you can:
- Right-click on the file and select run as administrator
- Go to the control panel->-> change the user account control user accounts settings. Change the settings for UAC to something like that

I have Rise of Nations / Thrones and Patriots and the game plays absolutely perfectly on my Windows7 Home Premium 64-bit system.

Cannot play movies/recorded shows in Windows Media Center on Windows 7
Three years ago I bought a Sony laptop with Vista and an external tuner ATI so that with a CableCARD, I could use Windows Media Center to record shows/movies. I recently bought a new PC with Windows 7 and found that the Windows 7 PC cannot read the 500 films/shows that have been saved and the new Windows 7 recorded shows can be played by the Vista laptop. Is any way to convert or run natively these shows that have been saved under the WMC?

Hi RalphGreenlee,
Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.
If I understand correctly, you are unable to play back movies recorded in windows media center.
Looks like the file cannot not supported by Media Center or you need a codec to right.
What type of video file format?
Also check the videos if there are other formats to the choice other than the one you have now.Method 1:
Step 1:
Indicate the file types supported by Windows Media Center:
Types of files supported by Windows Media Center:

Step 2:
Try using a good set of codecs and then try to burn video files.

I tried windows 10 and have used the functionality of recovery more than the computer itself for 3 months!
so I unchecked give me recommended updates the same way I receive important updates.
so, if I find a bunch of optional updates, even though they say windows 7 are actually for windows 10 as I've already seen 2 updates that others say are the door open for download this piece of JUNK!
my PC works well MICROSOFT with windows 7, I want 10 free WINDOWS and I sure I want to pay $10 or $1000 for it not today tomorrow not ever.
rant on so if I see recommended updates I can assume this is striktly for my windows 7 ultimate only see I disabled the above mentioned check.
I can also uninstall IE 11 and my PC will work as expected I use chrome for now at least is not in my face all the time Hey upgrade to windows 10.
Please let know us if I can use my windows 7 and Mossy on the road, knowing that any updates I install recommended updates will keep my PC running windows 7.
Thank you
You cannot uninstall IE, but you can disable it. Go to your "run" box and type optionalfeatures (one word) and in the next area, you get just disable IE.

Cannot play MPEG-4 video in Windows Media Player or Media Center from my Flip Video Camcorder
I use Win 7 with Windows Media Player 12 and when I try to play a Flip Video camcorder, which is an MPEG-4 format, I get the error "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem while playing the file."
I then help the option to select Web and it takes me a Microsoft page that describes the C00D11B1 error code. Who has no sense to me because it speaks to my sound card and I can't read thie videos no problem via the Flip Video software supplied with the camcorder.
I was under the impression that WMP 12 taken supported MPEG-4. Also get the Error tyring to play videos through Media Center. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I use Win 7 7600 version 6.1
I guess that the Flip Video software used a codec that is not Media Player. I was looking at the setting for the camera to see if it will save in another format.

It worked very well what place please?
* original title - Window Media Player cannot drive cannot read the file the player could does not load the file or may not support or does not support the codec used to compress the fichier.*
Hello
1. what changes have been made to your computer before the problem?
2. the problem occurs on a particular file?
3. What is the format of the file you want to play in Windows Media Player?You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:
(a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.
(b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.
Windows media player will play only the files and videos only if it supports this type of file.
Please see the bottom of the article that gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player.
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992
If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

I installed the birth of the United Nations, the original game on my computer to windows 7 Home premium and will not play the game in full screen. She always cut the sides of the black vertical column set. I tried everything: image format, right-click and do different stuff with the properties, nothing seems to work. It may be a problem with the compatibility? If so, what can I do about it?

Windows Media Player cannot play audio files
Hi, I have Toshiba laptop, this is my baby, and all of a sudden I can't play sounds! When I click to play a song in windows media player, it says:
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device. It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it may not work properly.
I tried everything and I'm on my last nerve! Basically, I'm rubbish with computers, I do not understand this at all, I followed all the ways suggested by the section 'aid' in my computer and I can't always listen to 'The Feeling!' Please help, I'm going crazy here!
Yes my friend. The computer world is really not easy to understand, and sometimes I wish that I could no longer live the island of computer.
but you know, the development never stop.OK, now your problem; have you checked the Device Manager?
You don't see any yellow exclamation next to the sound card?I think that you should first try reinstalling the audio driver. Of course, it s a very tips but especially it works essentially ;)
