facilities of individual components might not be recognized that SP1 & SP2?

I HAD INSTALLATION ERRORS CONSTANTLY... SO I DID A

FACTORY RESTORE AND THOUGHT EVERYTHING WAS FINE.

SP1 SHOWS SUCCESSFUL... CHANGES BACK NEEDS UPDATE AND SP2

WILL NOT UPDATE UNTIL THAT SP1 IS INSTALLED.

I EVEN DID THE FIX 947821 FOR INSTALLATION ERRORS.

I REBOOT AFTER EACH INSTALLATION, SHOWS STILL NEEDS ONE MORE TIME.

INSTALLATION MANUAL EVEN DOES NOT WORK.

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!

2/25, I tried again the manual installation... rebooted several times, so I thought it was

work.  Does not appear in the installed updates.

Whenever before he showed successfully... I thought purhaps I could uninstall and start

charge... but again once... does not appear in the installed updates.

If components are installed and SP2 does not recognize

What SP1 and so will not be installed in sp2?

Should I do another restore of the system and not let it automatically update... just try

SP1 and SP2 manual as well as the patches?

I want a nice clean system before add me RAM and upgrade to Windows 8.

Can you tell me how to print the page updates showing installed (for my records).

You can use the tool captures for capturing screenshots from the list of installed updates from time to time & then print that.  See http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/how-to-use-the-windows-snipping-tool/

Or you might see page MVP of my colleague Ramesh-online http://www.winhelponline.com/blog/how-to-print-the-windows-update-history-in-vista/

  • Vista updates not defective to install SP1 & SP2

    original title: Vista will be not updated

    I help my neighbor with his laptop Dell 1520 running Vista. She had some problems with IE-7 and I noticed that the laptop has not had a successful Windows at a time update long (do not have SP1 or SP2). I tried several attempts to get the updates to work and finally reloaded the operating system software Windows Vista to factory state - first of the recovery on the HARD drive partition, then a second time since the recovery disks provided by Dell. In both cases, the subsequent updates refused to stick. The first batch of 107 updates downloaded and installed, but then to restart something goes wrong and the system goes into Startup Repair which ends with a system restore. The end result is that many updates end in failure. Never can get past this, even by trying all the updated Microsoft suggested tips (mode boot, security turned off, audit, FixIt, clear temporary files, etc. of disk errors). When I run Windows updates again, I selected 107 updates to be installed again.

    I suspect that I have a HDD laminated, but thought that I would like to ask for help. Any suggestions on next steps?

  • Error when you try to play the downloaded tracks: Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. (((PLEASE HELP)))

    I understand that this has been a matter of repetition and I made the suggestions listed and nothing works. This just started happening, although downloading songs, and once they are finished I'm not able to play them with Windows Media Player. The initial message indicates that the file has an extension that is not recognized by Windows Media Player.


    I have a Dell Inspiron Laptop with Windows Vista Home. Any suggestions? What should I chahnge how I download and save music?

    Hey Taylor09,

    You may find that you are getting this message in Windows Media Player due to one of the following reasons.

    a. you try to play a file that is not supported by the player.

    b. you are trying to play a file that the player does not support, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    Step 1:

    Confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type. The following article lists the types of files (formats) supported by Windows Media Player.

    Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player

    Note that if you tried to play the file type is included in this table, 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.

    Step 2:

    Download the necessary codec to play the file.

  • When I go to read some files I downloaded (films), I get an error message windows media player cannot play the file the player might not support the file type or is unable to support the codec used to compress the file.what is the answer

    I have windows vista media player 11 ultimat.windows. now, I was told to find the right codec... How do this.and where can I get the right codec from.and will it upset my computer in any way.not computer minded.so please tell me slower.

    Hey,.

    There might be times, however, when you want to read the content that is compressed with a codec that does not include Windows or the default player. In many cases, you can download the necessary codec on the web for free or for a fee. And, in some cases, the player can automatically use the codecs installed by other reading programs and the creation of digital media on your computer.

    If you know the name of the codec or its ID (called a id FourCC for video codecs or a WaveFormat identifier for audio codecs), try the search on the Internet. Often, you can go to the codec manufacturer's Web site to download the latest version of a codec.

    Warning
    Use caution when installing codecs that you find on the Internet, in particular some of the free codec packs that claim to include codecs from a wide variety of companies or organizations. Incompatibilities are known to exist with some of the components in these codec packs that can cause serious playback issues in the player and other players, lead to the corruption of the system and make it difficult for Support from Microsoft to diagnose and solve playback problems. For these reasons, we strongly discourage you from installing these codec packs, and recommend that remove you them if you have installed them and you are having problems with the player. Install only codecs, filters or plug-ins from reliable sources, authorized, such as the website of the official supplier. Even in this case, beware: some codec suppliers offer minimal customer. Before you install the components of digital media, set a system restore point. The restore point to go back to the configuration of your system, if necessary.

    Install codecs may solve the problem in most conditions.

    I installed the operating system Windows XP 64 on Toshiba Qosmio F50 - 10K. I have a big problem, because Windows XP does not recognize my graphics card (nvidia geforce 9600 m gt).
    I tried to install the drivers from the nvidia site, but once this graphics card still has not been recognized.
    It causes that, when I try to push and drag a window, I can see how it is re-paint.

    Could someone help me to solve my problem?

    Hello!

    I think that the problem cannot be solved. Toshiba doesn't support any laptop computer with Windows XP 64-bit because it is OS was not so popular.

    The only way I know is to use drivers from external Web sites and update your BIOS to the latest version. If it doesn't work, you must use another operating system.

    I think that the Qosmio F50 is really fast enough for Vista 64-bit. Try it and you will see too much work.

  • Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

    Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

    Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

    Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

    I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP.

I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.

  • "Cannot access working group on some computers running XP - ' < name of working group > is not accessible. You might not have permission to use this network resource ".

    I have a home with 4 PC network - one of them is running Windows 7 Home Premium (with homegroup disabled) and others running XP Pro.  The XP machines is called 'Server' and the server and the computer services browser running and set to automatic.  Two other computers, called "Notebook" and "Dell", as well as the machine Windows 7 have no file and sharing printers enabled and have specifically the Server service is disabled.

    My problem is that one of the two XP client machines cannot access the working group.  Let me be clear about this: I open Windows Explorer and click on "My network places"-> "entire network"-> "Microsoft Windows network", there is then a second 5-10 break and then my workgroup name is displayed.  When I click on the name of the Working Group, there is another ~ 10 second pause and then I get a message that says error " is not accessible.  You might not have permission to use this network resource.  Contact the administrator of this server to find out if you have permissions.  A device attached to the system does not work. ', where is the name of my group to work for other days, after some of the computers are restarted, I find that the XP client has absolutely no problem with that; but the other now has this same problem.  In other words, the problem going on between two XP clients.

    Let's analyze: I have Windows on all PC firewall and any other firewall program.  I tried to disable the Windows Firewall and my anti-virus (temporarily), program without effect.  This may not be a problem with the way I've set up my actions because the error occurs when I try to click on the task force rather than a shared resource.  This cannot be a problem with a specific XP client because at different times, each of the two PCs worked perfectly without any changes of configuration made between the two.  It could be a problem with the server settings; but I don't see what it could be.  I tried editing

    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\LanmanServer\Parameters and changing

    IRPStackSize from 21 to 45, then 50.  I also tried to change the size of 2 to 3.  I restarted the server and the client XP and had no effect.

    I don't have the same account of user configured on all three machines.  However, this cannot be the issue because the problem occurs when I click on the task force, before the server name is still displayed.  In addition, each of these two XP clients have connected with their existing user accounts at times.

    I tried the Wizzard of configuration network running on all four machines, without effect.  I tried a lot of things, most of which I can't remember.  I'm at the end of my mind.  Help, please.

    JW,

    Thanks for the continued support.

    By the advice of IPCONFIG, I looked at the registry for all computers and found EnableProxy wasn't there.  According to the documentation by default to 0, which is what we want.  However, I added it to all the computers and left it set to 0 and restarted the computer.  The node Type still said 'unknown '.

    Thanks for the info on the master browser.

    The ""Network location cannot be reached"when you access actions."
    the article talks about Windows 2003 Server and none of the symptoms mentioned relate to this situation.

    The "network adapter advanced troubleshooting for Windows workstations" is on hardware troubleshooting.  I think that it's probably not a problem because the computer has no trouble to access the internet, which is not possible if the card network are not working.

    I went through the AutoCorrect entry to reset the TCP/IP stack, even if the article describes symptoms such as difficulty to access the internet...  And...  THIS MARKET!

    After re-booting, the PC that was in trouble can now access the working group.  All other PCs can always too (have not tried to restart all over again).  AWESOME!  I can't thank you enough!

    I re-post if the syptoms happen; but for now, we can consider this issue RESOLVED.
