3. look for the following services and check the status field, if they are started and then right click on them and chose to Stop:

  • Failure of Windows 7 Media Center Electronic Program Guide download

    I have two Windows Media Center computers, what can I use to record TV shows that both units could not update the EPG.  The info Guide indicates that she stopped at 20:00 on April 8, 2013 the Pacific time zone.  I tried to download several times without success on computers.  Walked through the configuration for the Windows Media Center thought something could have been wrong with it but no luck there either.  All other functions of computers works, IE... internet access, television and recording etc... Just TV ads all say "No Data available".

    What's the correct data on zap2it.com? have you tried a nearby zipcode? You can

  • Stopped Media Center Guide to update

    I have Windows XP Media Center Edition and some time around Christmas, the Media Center Guide stopped updating.  In turn, the recorded tv has stopped working.  It's been over 3 months later and it still does not work!  It all started when my computer updated.  It's updated several times since then and has still not solved the problem.  Help, please!

    Hello Jen_1918,

    I suggest that scan you SFC [SFC system] on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    a. click Start, click run, type cmd in the Open box and then click OK.

    b. at the command prompt, type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

    Note: Could you prompt to insert the Windows XP CD.

    The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

    For more information, you can consult the following article:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/astebner/Archive/2005/11/08/490466.aspx

    Sometimes, Windows Media Center would not be able to download Guide data. In general, this happens for the following reasons:

    (a) your computer is not connected to the Internet or there is a problem with your Internet settings.

    (b) If your computer connects to the Internet by using a dial-up connection, make sure that the connection is properly configured. For more information about setting up a dial-up connection for use in Windows Media Center, see solving problems with an Internet connection.

    (c) the Guide Server is not available or is temporarily out of service. If the Guide Setup was already complete, Windows Media Center will try to download it again daily.

    (d) the Guide service provider didn't Guide your location information.

  • Qosmio E15: How to upgrade Media Center 2002 SP1 to SP2?

    Hello

    My Qosmio E15-AV101 was shupped with Media Center 2002 SP1. I did the automatic update from Microsoft and also downloaded the SP2 package. Still, the upgrade process fails. When I'm tired, I contacted MS technical assistance for the reason my Media center rejecting the upgrade. Microsoft replyed than the version supplied with Toshiba and other equipment manufacturers are customized to match the hardware manufacturer full compatibility.
    Quote:
    "
    Notes of this part of the OEM and Microsoft agreement is to allow Original Equipment Manufacturer support for the products they have installed on a particular computer. The agreement was presented only the OEM often change and pre-install Microsoft software on their computers to ensure compatibility and to take full advantage of your computer s hardware. This means that the OEM has expertise on your Microsoft software on your computer in particular works.
    "

    So, is the solution to my problem. How to upgrade?

    Hello

    First of all it is a user to user forum and you won't find anyone from Toshiba.
    Secondly, as far as I know that your device was designed for an American market and if you are looking for drivers or updates you must use a Web from Toshiba site we:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_sc_home.jsp

    If you have any problems with your unit, so you must contact the ASP (authorized service partner Toshiba) in your country.

    As far as I know that Windows Vista is not official on the market. Maybe the end of the year or next year.
    I can t believe that you are not available to install the updates. I checked a few comments and Microsoft updates have always worked.

    As I suggested at the beginning if you have some problems with your unit has so contact the service of Toshiba.

  • Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 Guide Movie Database must be updated?

    OK guys, that here's what I would have answered as: I have Windows XP Media Center 2005 and use the program guide. When I see a lising for a movie and see the details for this movie she usually shows a copy of the DVD box cover or poster of the film with the inscription. Unfortunately, it only will do with cinema 2010 programs. For films released AFTER 2010, it doesn't show anything at all, except the written information about the film. No box cover or poster of the film at all. (I know that some of these DVDs are already out). Is it possible that the AMG can send an updated movie databases (and possibly CD) for use on the Media Center for all editions via Microsoft Update?

  • Windows Media Center not updated guide data

    I tried to restart the Media Center, but when he tried to make a new configuration of the tv he said data could not be downloaded and that it would use existing data.  This must have been the place that is the problem. What should I do now?  My guide data expires tomorrow.

  • Update of Windows Media Center electronic Program Guide only to July 22, 2015.

    Electronic Program Guide (EPG of my Windows 7 Media Center PC) ceased to be updated since July 15, 2015. I manually download updated guide to day and it confirms that the download was successful, but the guide has information up to the part of July 22. No information is passed to 20:00 on 22 July.

    This is a temporary problem or should there be a fix for Windows Update?

    Thank you!

    Same thing I had, but this fixed it for me.  Run the installation of media center and set up the new TV signal.  Takes a little everything and some channels is different, but the guide whole is back.  Not sure if I need to reprogram my recordings again.  I hope this works for everyone!

How is this possible and how to stop it? Vodafone have no idea (as usual), but they said that I had not been charged by anyone (yet). Thank you

  • Help! Is there a link for Windows Media Center download on Windows XP?

    URGENT! ***************HELP!!!!! ******************URGENT!!!!!!!!!!! Help! ******************URGENT***********************************!!!!!!!

    I JUST GOT A SECOND HAND DESKTOP COMPUTER. UNFORTUNETLY ITS RUNNING WINDOWS XP!

    MY QUESTION IS THIS: WHY DIDN'T IT INCLUDES WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER, CENTER OF BUT NOT PLAYER?

    ALSO: WHY ISN'T THERE A DOWNLOAD FOR THIS FOR WINDOWS XP?

    SOMEONE HAS A LINK ANY TYPE OF LINK TO GO TO THAT CAN I DOWNLOAD WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER?

    SOMEONE DID IT THE WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER ON A CD THAT THEY WOULD BE WILLING TO SEND ME A COPY? I WANT TO

    TURN ON ALL IS ALL THE COMPUTER GEEKS I LOVE YA ALL BECAUSE YOUR SO SMART SO TELL ME QUICKLY WHAT OH WHAT OH WHAT TO DO WHAT TO DO WHAT TO DO?

    !!!!! URGENT! ***************HELP!!!!! ******************URGENT!!!!!!!!!!! Help! ******************URGENT***********************************!!!!!!!

    First of all, there is not - and has never been - anywhere to download a legal copy of any version of Windows XP...

    Second, Windows XP Media Center Edition was available as a pre-installed OEM operating system (for example, Dell, HP, Gateway, etc.).  If you wanted a computer with MCE, you should have bought one with MCE.  In the unlikely case where your second-hand computer comes from an OEM and it came originally with MCE (look at the sticker on the box), it is possible, at a distance, the same manufacturer can provide the installation media necessary for a price.

    If the video card in the computer is able to drive the "big flat screen", then you have nothing else (assuming that the computer meets other material).  See http://www.ehow.com/info_8204776_needed-netflix-streaming-work.html and http://www.ehow.com/how_7561774_stream-netflix.html
