Media Center does not run with portable remote HP RC6

Hello
 
After installing SP1, I have observed that the remote control RC6 does not launch the media center when I press the green button.

Looks like it is a problem with HP, laptop computers SONY after installing SP1. When clean installing it worked very well. As the WUpdate installed SP1 its ' media center alone do not launch. But once the MC started manually in the menu start the remote control works well.

Any help?

Hi SimpleOS,

Thanks for posting your request on the Microsoft answers Site.

In addition to the previous answers, to check, you are currently able to launch Media Center using the RC6 remote and if the issue is resolved? Also, to solve the problem of the feature buttons to quick launch, try a clean boot in Windows Vista in order to determine if a background program may interfere.

For reference, please see the following link to get the procedure perform the clean boot in Windows Vista.

Please pass the State after the clean boot and also if the RC6 remote control works properly so that we can provide additional assistance.

Thank you

  • Media Center does not open on Windows 8.

    Recently built a new PC with Win 8 64-bit Pro and Media Center add-on bought.  However, whenever I click on the WMC icon, nothing happens. I installed a bunch of software on my machine, and some of it was a bit old stuff that I had to run in compatibility mode + install other updates (from / seller directly) to work to win 8. I have no doubt that if some of the older things may have pushed something - it seems, remind one of them wanting to install a .NET framework or something - but I don't know how to solve problems.

    I tried to turn the checkboxes of the WMC feature and restart but that did not help. I tried to start the PC in safe mode to see if that would help solve the problems, but he did not. My ideas on how to solve the problems and if there is anything I can do in addition to trying the Windows 8 update (ugh). Any ideas to help me? The update would be worth trying? I really don't want to spend a whole day trying to track this one down and a lot of software that I'm not sure that the uninstall is the culprit or not. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

  • Windows Media Center does not record the calendar.

    Planning to record a program, but sometimes lapsed time up to the point where it does not record. I am running Windows 7 Home. Yes, I checked preferences but which differs only up to 15 minutes max.  I have reinstalled twice already. Why please?

    Hello

    (1) did you make any changes before the show?

    (2) what is the brand and model of the computer?

    Windows Media Center records the first home run HD programs or any which TV tuner installed. However, you may need to follow a few rules.

    -If you turn off your computer, Windows Media Center does not have a regular program. The computer must be turned on or "standby mode" to record a television show. The computer will not automatically in standby mode if Windows Media Center is open.


    -Make sure that you turn off the screen and lower or turn off the sound if you have one at the request of a record in the middle of the night and don't want to be disturbed.

    -Your scheduled recording may not save in the following situation: schedule you a recording in Windows Media Center to start in less than ten minutes, close Windows Media Center and put your computer into standby or hibernation mode immediately. Use or one of the following options to save your record programmed:

    a. do not close Windows Media Center before you put your computer on standby or hibernation.
    b. after having programmed a recording, wait a minute before you put the computer in standby or hibernation.

    I would have you refer to the article below:

  • void VI does not run with the main VI.

    My main and sub VI is attatched.

    danil33 wrote:

    Re: void / VI does not run with the main VI.

    When you start your main program, the Subvi is called and the main VI must wait the Subvi before it can continue. However, the Subvi is not set to open the Panel before, so very probably that it runs in the background for 100 seconds (1000 iteration to 100ms), because no one can press the stop button at the beginning to put an end to the Subvi. Once the Subvi is completed, the last value is returned to the main VI via the output connector and the main VI can process and display this last value. At this point, the main VI stops, because it's done (hopefully you do not "continuous operation").

    Obviously you have some misconceptions of beginners on the stream. Please we tell exactly what you expect the program to do, and we might be able to point in the right direction.

  • Media Center does not start

    OK, here's my question. I am running Vista Ultimate 32 Bit and my media center works not period. I get the error message "Windows cannot open this program because it has been prevented by a software restriction policy" contact admin system, it's me. I do not assign any software restriction rule, then, what do I do, tried the remove files in ehome, did not work. also tried SFC / Scannow - Ditto...

    Well what now?

    Confused beyond belief

    Hello

    1. What are the files you delete the eHome folder?
    2. don't you make changes before the show?
    3. is the computer connected to a domain?

    Deletion of system files will result in a malfunction of the operating system, therefore it is strictly not recommended to delete any system files.

    Step 1: Restore the computer to an earlier time.
    1. Click Start, type system restore, click System Restore in the list.
    2. choose the appropriate date when the computer was working fine.
    3. follow the instructions in the wizard to complete the system restore process.
    For more information, see this link:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-system-restore

    Step 2: We recommend that you cross check if the problem continues in a new user account. To do this, try the following steps.
    1. open user accounts by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, click user accounts and family safety (or by clicking on user accounts, if you are connected to a network domain), and then clicking user accounts.
    2. click on manage another account.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    3. click on create a new account.
    4. type the name you want to assign to the user account, click an account type, and then click on create an account.
    5 restart the computer and log on to this account and check if you are able to launch Windows Media Center.

    For more information about the new user account, see this link:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/fix-a-corrupted-user-profile

    Try the steps and post back with the results, so that we can help you further.
