How to get Windows Media Player 12 for open Media Guide automatically more other related problems.

I recently got a new computer with Windows 7 installed. All my files from my old XP computer transferred professionally. When I open WMP display shows "contact the location of the line" and will then quickly "the page you requested could not be found or no longer exists. Under this formulation is a link to www.windowsmedia.com which, once clicked takes me to the screen required.

Also when you click on 'Browse all on line stores' I get a screen with 'Online shopping' and 7 lines of how this choice is a single click but no link is provided.

Although the next upward of question mark 'Help' to the right of the screen is a web address "onlinestores.metaservices.microsoft.com". By clicking on this address has no effect. A search on Google, I noticed that there is a website "www.metaservices.microsoft.com/servicesswitching" which does not seem to get me on the site onlinestores.

It seems that either my WMP12 is programmed with web addresses wrong or there is something already in its "web address box" which is corrupting the web address, so that it is looking.

Help please because this also seems to prevent WMP you are looking for a Web site to renew my usage rights and stops playing me my legitimately downloaded tracks.

Tim told me that like the helpful guy he is.  I'm asking the right people to resolve this URL reference.  Who should fix the switch here.  Thanks for the bug report!

    While not a central theme of your comments, I have received about 50 emails about Media Center. I would like to reassure customers that Media Center will certainly be part of Windows 8. No doubt about it. Knowing how strong the support of Media Center is between the testers of the preliminary version, we still have to do to ensure quality and compatibility with supplements is what you expect still in pre-release (as for any version of Windows, compatibility is an important effort, and when we work on the underlying video engine (for example, make sure that the features that push these areas receive adequate coverage).

  • How to get windows xp re - install for installing the flash drive to the computer error portable "windows\system32\config\system".

    My Acer Aspire One has error "windows\system32\config\system" How can I get a copy of windows xp original usb? When I bought the

    computer laptop windows xp made & paid for. Product key is on the back. Can I download & reinstall using a flash drive?

    C:\Windows\system32\config\system is one of the files that make up the system registry.  Backups of the system registry files are kept in the 'C:\System Volume Information' folder under the system restore program.  Probably all you need to do is copy of registry backups in the Windows\system32\config folder.  A reinstall of windows may not be necessary.

    To do this is to start your machine from a free "Live Linux" thumb drive.  You can create a startup disk Ubuntu here:
       <>http://www.Ubuntu.com/download/Ubuntu/download >

    Follow the instructions of "Try me" and you should be able to copy backups of registry in place.  Windows has "Hidden doubling" the System Volume Information folder, but Linux doesn't seem to have any problems with it.  After starting from the Thumb Drive Linux, follow the instructions in the following article from part 2, step 6, using the graphical interface of Linux to copy files (right click copy, make a right click Paste) instead of the lines of command in the article.  With a little patience, you can restore the registry from a backup, and be back in operation

    I bought two games for children, toy story / activity center and my first amazing Explorer scientific, previously used. My computer tells me there are compatibility problems. I need of 64-bit or bits 84! My windows 7 is 64-bit. I don't understand why the games will not work. I bought this computer in 2012, it's a dell inspiron 560, with windows 7.  Help, please.   MY FIVE YEAR OLD WILL BE VERY GREATFUL

    Hello flowerchild76,

    A look at the area of the games. It should tell you what operating system, the game has been designed such as Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7.

    If it does not show to be compatible with Windows 7, then try to install in compatibility mode.
    If you have an older application for Windows XP or Vista, which does not work in Windows 7, you can make it work properly by running the program in compatibility mode.
    1. to start, find the application or the shortcut which is the cause of the problem, and then right-click on it and select Properties.
    2. then, select compatibility in the menu tabs at the top of the properties page:
    3. now check the box run this program in compatibility mode "dethrone" and select the operating system you want to emulate. For most applications, this will be Windows XP SP2. Once you are finished, click OK.
    4. When you then run the application, it must run under compatibility using the OS mode you have selected. If it runs properly, try another selection of OS in step 3, and then try again.
