I can't get my computer to read the DVD.

My emachines computer has capabilities of DVD RW drive (D :), but he keeps trying to make me download upgrades of RealPlayer.)  How can I fix it to run on my Media Player as it allows?

Just uninstall RealPlayer. The next time you want to open a DVD or a CD of Windows will ask you which program you want to use. Select WMP and make sure that the 'always open with... is checked.

See you soon,.

  • I can't get Premiere Pro to read the timecode of ProRes files

    I have a pix240i that I use to record the Pro Res files to.  When I import the ProRes files in first, the timecode for each clip begins to 00:00:00:00, instead of display timecode camera recorded, even though I have "Use Media Source" selected in the preferences.  If I take the same clips in Quicktime or Final Cut Pro, they read the appropriate timecode.  It is a big deal, I need to be resolved.  All the solutions or is this a Bug Pro first.  I did some research and found that some people had this problem last year, but I've never seen a resolution.

    Hi Greg,.

    I have the following problem registered:

    • PrPro is not read/display TC correctly from PIX recorder captured ProRes files

    It is supposed to be fixed in first Pro CC 2015.0 (9.0). So, if you're still on 8.2 or earlier version, you can upgrade to the current version. If you are on 9.0 or later, please file a bug report. Also, let me know if you do, and I will try to reopen the previous bug, as well.

  • How can I get 13 items to read the RAW of Nikon D750 files?

    I move my camera since Nikon D3200 to Nikon D750. With the D3200 I used 11 items to edit JPEG and RAW files, but discovered today that 11 elements is not compatible with the D750 to read RAW files. I downloaded the trial version of 13 items - which is compatible with the Adobe help desk, but taken with the D750 RAW files aren't always be seen. However, I don't see the RAW files that I took with the D3200.

    Same card memory is used and I formatted the card when I changed from one camera to another.

    What I am doing wrong? I almost always shoot RAW, so I need to be able to the files.

    I wonder if the 13 elements is really compatible with the D750.

    I want to add that I use a Mac.

    Thank you!

    Shannon

    Just use help > updates in the element editor 13 photoshop to get camera raw 8.7, so you don't have to use the DNG converter and then you will be able to open the nikon D750 directly in 13 EPS files.

  • Computer to read DVD - one message says that I can not read the DVD, except that I have installed a new driver.

    I have a new Toshiba C650 laptop, and he says that I can not read the dvd on it except that I have installed a new driver. Is this true?

    Hi Bill,

    To be honest, this sounds ridiculous but if you get a message, I suppose it could be possible even if I find it incredible.  Do you have it in a (local or online) retail store or Toshiba?  By any chance did you upgrade from the DVD player when buying (where they may have accidentally neglected to update the drivers of the drive that was originally installed)?

    As it is new, Toshiba should help you with this.  Here's the contact page: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/navShell.jsp?cf=su_contact&pf=true.  Give them everything they need to prove that buy you it and it should be under warranty and then give them the message Word for Word, that you have found.  They should be able to help you.  They can, for some reason I don't know, you don't need to help or guide you through a new driver installation.  I ask for a clear explanation of why this is necessary on a new computer and, if you are not satisfied with the response, ask them to consider that all the faulty computer and replace it.  Even if they won't, he needs the get them less motivated to solve your problem.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How can I get my computer my external USB drive (portfolio) after that I repeatedly get the message that the device "can not be removed?

    Original title: I need a market to resolve the problem remove the instrument.

    How can I get my computer my external USB drive (portfolio) after that I repeatedly get the message that the device "can not be removed? I have closed all other programs and waited for varying amounts of time, and tried all of the fixes that have been proposed on this site. Nothing works. I don't want to turn off the computer whenever I have to remove the device.

    I can't know what "all patches" you've tried, but:

    Make sure that the system restore does not monitor the external drive.  SR does need to control the system drive and to the system drive, SR has only about 1 GB of space max.  Make a right click my computer and select properties then the System Restore tab to configure SR.

    Make sure that the Indexing Service is turned off (at least for the external drive).  To disable disk indexing completely, which will also speed up your computer a bit, see http://lifehacker.com/031440/turn-off-indexing-and-speed-up-windows-xp.  For the external drive, right-click on the drive icon in my computer, select properties and uncheck the indexing disc

    There are different workarounds short to shut down the computer, but you might want to try this third-party app first:
    http://safelyremove.com/index.html  Among other features:

    The device cannot be stopped now. Why? Never encountered the situation when Windows does not allow you to remove a device? Unlike Windows, USB remove will show you programs which prevent the device to be stopped and let you close these programs or just files that they opened on the device.

  • now, I can't get my computer up I think there virus...

    now, I can't get my computer up, according to me, I have a virus... I have a notebook... it tells me to reinstall a copy of the file, l.dll... root\system32\ha windows i can't open my computer this is what keeps poping have cd can b used... once more laptop... it is only a 11 inches and no access to the CD... so know u help me.. pls

    What kind of laptop is (make and model).

    If it supports booting from a USB key, you can make a bootable flash drive that starts the recovery XP (no XP media required) Console.

    Surely someone can help you with that (how about it system engineers)?

    There is probably nothing wrong with your hal.dll file - XP only can not find.

    Unfortunately, even the 'new' Microsoft Answers forum does not have any kind of information system when a new question is asked, so we don't know anything about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

    Maybe someday the dialog box 'ask a question' forums XP will ask these questions automatically when a new thread is started so I don't have to ask every time.  It might even be possible to solve a problem in a single response when enough information is provided.

    Please provide additional information on your system:

    What is your system brand and model?

    What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

    Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

    The question was preceded by a loss of power, aborted reboot or abnormal termination?  (this includes the plug pulling, buttons power, remove the battery, etc.)

    If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

    P. S.

    You are unlikely to simply replace the hal.dll by copying a file hal.dll from another system, and here's why:

    When XP is installed, it selects and develops the hal.dll appropriate among seven possibilities of compressed on the CD of installation files:

    HAL. DL_
    HALAACPI. DL_
    HALACPI. DL_
    HALAPIC. DL_
    HALMACPI. DL_
    HALMPS. DL_
    HALSP. DL_
     
    Everyone who can be developed in a hal.dll file, so if it is your intention to replace your hal.dll, you should have to understand or know in advance which is the right one for your hardware, motherboard and processor.  If you just picked one at random, you would have a chance of one in seven (14%) to get the right pair.  You will get maybe lucky.

    Most people would simply choose the file hal.dl_ to expand, but it's the simplest, most boring, generic, and less likely to be correct of all the choices.  It might "work" but it will work hard on something very old material of the system or a virtual machine.

    The file hal.dl_ on the CD is the most boring of all:

    HAL. DL_

    * Standard PC

    It's a good choice for some virtual machines (such as VMWare), but a very poor choice for most systems.

    If I wanted to replace the file hal.dll in the same system here, I would need to expand this file:

    HALMACPI. DL_

    * Standard PC
    * Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
    * Multiprocessor ACPI
    * MPS multiprocessor

    If I wanted to replace the file hal.dll on an older system here, I would need to expand this file:

    HALAACPI. DL_

    * Standard PC
    * Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC
    * ACPI Uniprocessor
    * Multiprocessor ACPI

    If you thought you needed to replace your hal.dll because your system was complaining that the hal.dll file is missing or damaged, the message is misleading, and the real problem is usually the boot.ini file and has nothing to do with the hal.dll file.

    It is also why when people trying to help you give instructions to put in your XP CD and unzip the hal.dl_ file to replace yours, it's usually bad well-meaning advice from a novice.  It is less likely to be the right choice.

    You may be able to copy one from a system with a very similar hardware and the things you can do, but chances are that you will not solve the no boot scenario.  I've never seen a corrupted hal.dll.  Seen the message, not the problem...

    That kind of help is generally going to be very bad - although it sort of logic in a first time and is 'logic', but it will never work favorably and it is usually not the problem anyway.

    I fixed the problem "missing or corrupt hal.dll" several times, but I've never needed to replace a hal.dll file doing - which is never really the problem.
