We have a computer that is running Windows 7 and (I think) Windows Media Player 12. When I start ==> all programs ==> windows media player, the program starts and it seems to work. It is a work computer, so no video or audio file is saved.
We have an online seminar that the user wants to participate in, and when we click on the link to get the webinar, an error message appears saying that Windows Media Player is not installed on the computer.
We use Firefox (version reasonably updated, but do not know which) for internet.
I used the "fix it" tool on the website of Microsoft, but that does not solve anything. He said it sets some configuration settings. I thought that maybe uninstall and reinstall it can work, but I can't understand completely uninstall because it isn't in my list of programs in the control panel.
Any suggestions?
Thanks for any ideas you may have.
Nolan
(Moved to programs)
Uninstall and reinstall could be done by searching for and opening the option "turn on or off Windows features", but I don't think it will help.
Instead, what you need is a Windows Media Player plugin for your browser (Firefox).
But before you spend effort on it, I would test to see if it's really the solution. Try to join your webinar with Internet Explorer (where the WMP plugin is built). If it works, you can be reasonably sure to know how to make it work with Firefox.

Pop Up window which appears when you connect to the computer
I made an update of windows Monday, 7-6 and now get the following message when I connect to my computer. When you try to close the popups they keep reappearing. Any idea on what it's for or how to fix?
The feature you are trying to use is on a network unavailable resource. Click OK to try again or enter a different path to the folder containing the installation package "status.msi" in the box below. "" Another box pops up saying please wait while windows configures the status. Then another box appears saying that cannot find an installation package for the product. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package "status.msi".

8.1 Windows disc included and already installed on the computer
I received my new 9020 OptiPlex with Windows 7 and accompanying the expedition's 8.1 for windows 8.1 Windows recovery media products. The drive says that it is already installed on my computer. Where? I cannot locate and hesitate to put this disc without knowing what to expect. Any suggestions or ideas?
This disc that says the Applications already installed on your computer IS NOT a recovery DISK. Its a driver disc. Dell is not provided recovery media and hasn't since about 2006.
I recommend you to get a good SHOW of 16 or more USB Flash drive and make a usb boot DBAR flash recovery.

What should I do to get windows vista on the new hard drive on the old, because I would like to upgrade to windows 7 since vista when I transferred transversely to the new.
Your license of Vista will be OK to reinstall it on a hard drive replacement on the same computer.
Hard disk manufacturers provide normally cloning software to do what you want to do.
Look at your new Hard Drive manufacturer's Web site.
Or there are 3rd Party software (cost the same money if): http://www.acronis.com.au/homecomputing/products/trueimage/

You the problem is that you are unable to "verify your identity" to the computer.

If I understand my Internet search, that this is a classic problem with Win7 and Vista I had my sound connection at startup of the computer each time. It comes, of course, with the sound of starting Windows (i.e. before opening of session) disabled.
When I log out and then log in again once I get acoustic logging, so the question is about the AutoConnect at startup.
I would really like to know if there is any small hack or trick that I could use to allow me to get a sound at startup to logon without having to connect.
NB. There is no security issue on automatic logon, because it is a home computer and I live alone.
Thank you very much
Philip Goddard.I'm having the same problem, I think I'll call dell and see what they say, I integrated 5.1 audio so I guess that there is no sound card. I'll post my results

Failure of KB967912 Windows Vista updated 10 x today and the computer can't access internet
My new ACER Vista Office tried to install this update 10 x, today. It started while I was working this afternoon. Until that moment, I had a complete connectivity via a cable CAT5e LAN accessing a router and cable modem. Later, I lost the first internet and local network access. Before that, I had worked with Firefox, Windows Media, and financial software and everything was accessed successfully the ' net. Then, I tried to configure Microsoft Outlook 2007 to get my email. His inability to access my cable provider was the first idea I had that I didn't have connectivity.
Each time, I had the exclamation point on the stop switch and Vista stops with the view that he was installing "Update 1 of 1. However, whenever I rebooted the update didn't install. Also, I had to restart my modem and router every time to regain access to the internet for short periods of time; in less than 4 to 7 minutes, all access to the internet is lost again. The error code was Code BC2 the last couple of times, but before that I also got error Code 80200053 when an Office update also failed to install. (I was able to install the Office update successfully, after another restart and cycle the modem to regain power connectivity).
Help! FYI, I had to find another computer even to post this question!
