• cannot depend on the discovery network and media streaming in windows 7

  I have recently reinstalled windows 7 because that... Well, it was long due, my laptop for about 3 years now and still had the original installation on it. But this time every time when I try to turn on my network discovery he constantly changing to and in my home group when I click on choose media streaming options and try to turn on media streaming it dose nothing, I looked at about 20-25 different sites/forums and followed the guide on here it is turn on and set to automatic

  o computer browser
  o Client DHCP
  o customer DNS
  o network connections
  o knowledge of network locations
  o remote procedure call (RPC)
  o server
  o support TCP/IP Netbios
  o workstation
  and a few others that I found as switch function Discovery Provider Host but still nothing, even uninstalled my A / V AVG, turned off my firewall altogether and also tried to get into safe mode with networking, I tried to leave my home group and join, tried to change an active home to work and even public network but still not good.
  I mainly use this function to listen to music from my laptop to my Xbox then play the games, but if my Xbox can't locate my cell phone so I can't listen to music, using windows media center, it works I can listen to music, photos videos etc, but that's all that is not of a any real use to me.
  My laptop is a fujitsu Siemens, I have a Wi - Fi connection with my laptop and Xbox, but have you tried Wired, the Xbox can find my laptop ok MOM, she can't find my cell phone no more.
  IM at the end of my rope here I really don't know what else to do to reinstall my windows in the hope that it work that I really want to avoid, especially if it still does not.

  Right, I discovered how to activate my network discovery and multimedia streaming, I solved this problem when trying to leave my home group, and he wouldn't so let me google and I found this link http://www.sevenforums.com/network-sharing/23571-cant-leave-homegroup.html where he says to check

  The base filtering engine
  DNS client

  services, only 1 of which has not been started and set to automatic has function Discovery Provider Host & Upnp Device Host so I changed it restarted now my settings be saved, left the Group House and each reflection works well.
  Then maybe add additional 1s in this list the standard response that is sent to these issues.
  Thanks anyway for the help.

• Windows 7; Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public folder sharing and streaming media

  Windows Home Premium SP1, completely up to date.  Windows Firewall is enabled.

  Try to keep the file sharing and printers on a home network.  Try changing the settings on the control panel; All Control Panel items: Center network and sharing; Advanced sharing settings.

  When I try to change the option buttons for sharing, then click on save changes at the bottom of the page, the screen jumps to the network and sharing Center.  Object entering the settings advanced, no parameters have been recorded.   The comoputer restarting does not help.  I checked that the following services are running and set to automatic according to the http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-networking/cant-turn-on-network-discovery-and-media-streaming/98654e71-4bff-4dd3-acec-ffc3524d44a4;

  When I stop the Windows Firewall service, I can activate the sharing I want.  Of course the windows firewall prevents sharing I would do on my network.

  I'm uncomfortable with Miss having a firewall work on my computer.  How to configure my Win 7 machine windows firewall to allow communications with my homegroup?  I tried to restore the default values.  This did not allow the communication.  I tried to find the homegroup settings in the advanced settings of the windows firewall.  No luck there.

  What should I do to configure my windows firewall to allow network discovery and file sharing of printers and media streaming and sharing?

  Hi stephanie,.

  Thanks for joining us out on Microsoft Community Forums.

  Looks like the Windows firewall prevents the discovery network, files and printers, sharing, public sharing of files and streaming media. We will analyze and identify the cause of the problem.

  You have a third-party antivirus installed on the computer program?

  Method 1:

  To turn on network discovery
  
  1. Open advanced sharing settings by clicking the Start button, then Control Panel. In the search box, type network, click Network and sharing Center, and then, in the left pane, click on change settings for sharing advanced.
  2. click on the chevron to expand the current network profile.
  3. click turn on network discovery and then click on save changes. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide
  confirmation.

  The article below explains all about the network discovery:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/enable-or-disable-network-discovery

  If any of these responses not solve the issue, let us then run the sfc scan and check if any file system is corrupt. I also recommend to perform a clean boot in order to find the root cause of the problem.

  Method 2:

  Use the (SFC.exe) System File Checker tool to determine which file is causing the problem and then replace the file. To do this, follow these steps:

  a. open an elevated command prompt. To do this, click Start, click programs, accessories principally made, right-click Guest, and then click Run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on allow.

  b. type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow

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

  More information on SFC scan found in this document:

• Cannot enable the streaming media to other devices on my network?

  When I try to install Media Streaming on Win 7 Home Premium 64 - bit, using Control Panel/Network Sharing Center/Media Streaming Options, I find the following strange problem.  The "show devices on:" drop-down list has no content and does not allow me to select anything.  On my Win 7 wife's computer, this dropdown allows of me selcet is "all networks" or "local networks".  I discovered this error when I bought an XBox 360 and setup of Windows media Center on it.  Windows Media center on the XBox can connect to my PC and play all the music in my library of music through Media Center, but the XBox can't find my pc on the network using the music library or picture library.  My PC does not list the XBox when I "see the network computers or devices", but nor does my wife's PC.

  I am confused as to how my XBox has been so easily connected to my PC and continues to work perfectly in the application of the XBox, Windows Media Center, and still fails to find my PC or browse its contents through its other music/photo/media applications.

  I have no problem connecting to XBox Live or on the internet.

  Any ideas?

• Network shared Variable breaks rtexe

  I have a cRIO-9063 which I want to use for the control (PWM digital output for pumps signals) and measurement (temperature and voltage) of a system. In the ideal configuration the cRIO would be able to take measures and rebroadcast to a PC for monitoring and logging. The PC must be also able to change the digital output PWM on the cRIO lines. The cRIO should be able to continue to operate when the PC is not available. To do this, I use Scan interface for data acquisition and shared variables (single editor, no RT FIFO) hosted on the cRIO for network communication.

  I have developed the code for the target cRIO as well as my host PC meets my criteria. However, this code only works in development mode. When I try to build and deploy a rtexe on the cRIO, it does not work. I reinforced to the back and made a simple LED flashing user vi, ensure what I create and deploy properly. Slowly adding things to this flashing vi, I discovered it's shared network variables that break the vi once it is integrated into a rtexe.

  After flipping through other-related posts, I'll include the following:

  -There is no object on the remote VI front panel. Simply add a variable node shared is enough to break the vi (when it is deployed).

  -J' tried including my shared variable library in support of the construction directory, but what I saw there is not copied during construction or deployment. I manually copied the library to the /home/lvuser/natinst/bin/data / directory on the cRIO, then used an invoke node to deploy the cRIO variables when the software starts first. Even when you include a delay of 10 seconds after the invoke node, it did not work, just a mistake of 1043 at "the method or property is not supported in this version of LabVIEW."

  -NSV is referenced as absolute

  Some details of my configuration:

  LabVIEW 2015

  cRIO 15.0

  NOR-RIO 15.0

  Communication via ethernet, static IP

  Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I suspect that I forget a few minor step or detail, otherwise am poorly understand exactly how and when shared network variables are deployed.

  I found shared to not be worthwhile over the years network variables.

  The RT EXE is not able to use the library to deploy to deploy the shared Variables.  See Help topic: http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/371361M-01/lvprop/app_libdeploy_library/

  In general, SV are deployed once the project and they persist through reboots of the RT system.  In general, you should have a startup routine that checks the shared variables and expected for there to be without error on a node of the OAS and then move on to the rest of the program, defining the commissioning of values and check that they spread in the engine of the Variable is a typical method.

  See here for more information on the deployment of a variable in an application of the RT.  http://digital.NI.com/public.nsf/allkb/990508969805A7C086257619007189E7

  The section deployment of Variables shared in a real-time (RT) target running Headlessly is downstairs.  Because you are connected to an HMI PC, you should be able to use the library to deploy feature of the PC code targeting the cRIO.

  Usually, it's a faster, more scalable solution to replace your shared network Variables with a stream of network dedicated to the HMI and another for HMI - RT EXE commands.  You can send complex structures such as a cluster or even define the message as a cluster of enum and variant type to be able to use the Enum to convert the variant correctly according to the Enum value.

• 64-bit Windows 7 mouse freezes / stuttering several times per minute, when the network activity is high

  Hi all
  I recently bought a new computer Packard Bell with a Windows 7 OEM who have a problem with the mouse and keyboard. I've been in contact with the manufacturer, but they are also confused that I have on this issue. After looking in many discussions about the problems of the mouse in windows 7, I found that there are many who have this problem but there is no consistency in the HW configuration, i.e. it seems more a problem with the OS.
  I really like the machine and Windows 7, but I have a nagging issue with frequent 1-2 second freeze/stuttering of the mouse during the 'high' network activity (e.g. streaming a YouTube video). During my research, I met at least 4 people who who call network activity affect the behavior of the mouse.
  Sometimes the keyboard or the mouse becomes completely insensitive and the system must be restarted. However, on these occasions, the rest of the system is not affected - for example Skype and other programs to continue to operate without glitch or lag.
  To try to solve this problem, I did the following (with no effect on the problem):
  -Updated all the drivers to the latest.
  -J' tried different version of the mouse drivers (most recent running now).
  -Tried different versions of the network driver (latest running now).
  -Change keyboard and mouse to the PS2 came with the computer.
  -Set the system to 'high performance '.
  -Changed for USB mouse
  -J' tried various Bios settings 'mode of power/suspend' (proposed in solution in another thread)
  One thing that has had a strange effect on the problem was:

  -Seen the PS2 and USB mouse is touching one when the other freezes / stuttering will immediately resolve stuttering gel.
  I have studied/noted:
  -There has never been a 'error box"popping up in Windows when this happens.
  -In the event viewer I see warnings from "i8042prt" regarding (remember, thie is translated from Swedish :) 'The device sent an incorrect response, once the keyboard has been reset' (this is what I found, if you need more information please ask but provide what to look for and where)
  My system has the following specifications:
  Operating system: Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium

  Versions: 6.1.7600 build 7600

  Manufacturer: Packard Bell

  Computer model: ipower G3720

  Computer type: PC x 64

  Processor: Intel Core i7 CPU 860 to 2.80 GHz, Mhz, 4 core, 8 logical processors 2801

  Date and - version of BIOS American Megatrends Inc. P01 - B1-2010-03-23

  Version SMBIOS 2.6

  HAL (Hardware Abstraction Layer) Version = "6.1.7600.16385".

  GB of physical memory (RAM) 6.00
  In addition to the original equipment, I also installed a network card PCIe wireless D - Link DWA - 556 Xtreme N PCIe Desktop Adapter (using the latest drivers for windows 7 d-link)
  FYI: this is a descent by request of support for MS, disorder report posted here first: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7performance/thread/01655e0a-1489-44e0-ad75-e9ee5486d91e?prof=required
  Thanks for any help on this
  / Rasgra

  Hi Chris,

  I might have a happy ending to this topic :)
  I returned my old piece of system got another, it worked fine at first, but then the mouse began to stutter once again.

  The system had only a few programs installed so I started to uninstall it to see if it changed anything.
  A program - Skype.

  I never suspected that my friends use Windows 7 and Skype without any problem, although they could not use quadcore and 64-bit version.

  My system is without stutters and glitches for a week, so I'm pretty sure that was the problem.
  That Skype is a very wide spread of IM, it could apply to other institutions.

  Thanks for your help!

• Residential Group / Network ID Issuee as I can't get the homegroup to connect to my home network

  I am running Win 7 Pro on my laptop and can't get the homegroup to connect to my home network. I have two other computers (wired, one wireless) which are connected and share without problem and can even see (that) the name of my laptop on the network home.

  When I run the troubleshooter to homegroup, it is to identify a network problem, but the next step cannot identify a because my laptop connects wireless both at home and on the road. I think that the problem is in my setting of the network ID and the Discovery Mode as when I try to change the setting for network ID for 'Home' instead of 'Business' it resets right back to business. Same thing happens with trying to turn the discovery mode 'On', it is 'Off '.

  I appreciate all the help that I have been fighting this issue for awhile now and just have not had time to fix.

  Thank you

• View files and directories on a remote system (RIO) on a host (PC)

  Hello

  Please assume that we discuss software based on the example of standard project "Labview FPGA control on Compact RIO." The host is an initiation LV14 ongoing fall of running PC, the remote system is a sbRIO-9636 having a USB HDD and SD card. The objective is the control of the process. The control process is not relevant to the question.

  That question is on the implementation of the following functionality: the user operates a host running a user Labview vi (UI Main.vi) the interface locally on the host computer. Part of this vi should offer the user built in dialogue (some express vi or another) or custom dialog (a vi to measure on request). The dialogue should display the directories and files on the remote system that is running RT Main.vi and it must allow the user to select a single XML file on the remote system (which contains generic configuration information). The file name is passed then to the remote system and the remote system will act to open and fill out a few configuration variables.

  I'm sure that a widely used solution exists for this problem but I have not found the right words to type in my favorite search engine and yet to produce the result. I propose the following:

  (1) the user clicks on a button "select config file" Main.vi UI

  (2) the place of event loop UI Main.vi a message on the main message queue of the UI based on the event value caused by the modifier key

  (3) the UI Main.vi enqueues message loop a separate message on the stream from the network "user interface control flow '.

  (4) the Main.vi RT, RT loop - UI Commands.vi Subvi receives the message from the stream and places it on the message Main.vi RT queue

  (5) the message Main.vi RT loop performs some functions to read disk, directories and filenames of the RT system structures

  (6) name of file and directory (5) data are converted to a variant and went with an appropriate message in the network of RT writer stream

  (7) the Main.vi UI periodically reads the stream network of RT writer (it's in the 'monitoring loop') and place the message received (6) in the queue of messages in the user interface

  (8) the message queue of the user interface main filled the main façade of the UI with the data

  (9) the user selects the directory and the file they want and click on an ok"" button.

  (10) the causes of button click ok the event loop of the main UI to place a message in the queue of messages of UI Main.vi due to the expectancy value change on the ok button

  (11) the places UI Message Loop a message on the stream from the network "User interface control flow" with the selected file name of the selected file as the data (stored as Variant)

  (12) the RT Main.vi, RT loop - UI Commands.vi Subvi receives the message from the stream and places it on the message Main.vi RT queue

  (13) the RT Main.vi message loop opens the XML file and populated the appropriate variables with the configuration options that are there.

  The user must be able to cancel the dialog and avoid using a configuration file, but I have not delt with it here.

  Now for the questions:

  (1) is this a logical approach?

  (2) are there any suggestions for a better way?

  (3) all links to pre-written code that will allow to me impliment all or a part of this with minimal effort (I am referring to dialog bit rather than the forest of streams and events network as these structures still exist and have a lot of custom code in them)?

  Thank you

  James

  I do something like that, but as the interaction of the user on the host, I keep the Configuration files also on the host.  This saves a few steps:

  • Host opens VI of dialogue saying "Choose Configuration file", pointing to the location designated on the host.
  • The user selects a Configuration file.
  • Host bed data packets to send to remote files.
  • The host sends Message 'Configuration' with the previous step Configuration data remotely.
  • Remote control receives the message and any Configuration configures automatically, possibly to send message 'I'm Ready' return home.

  All I/o file consists of the host, and only a single host remote message must be sent.

• Computer to do its own thing

  We have a home group to share on our network.  We enabled streaming and also the detection of network.  Bad idea.  Now, he seems to be crossed or copied files.  Photos and videos are put in folders and hidden behind HABs cards or other items, and then when you are looking to see what they are, they contain photos and videos.  He said at one point, a component of Norton anitvirus was isolated and then looked as if it had.  Also, our wireless printer was no longer in Control Panel under devices.  Just went and showed in the Manager of devices with locks on them.  Several things like what's happening.  Is this a virus?  It is hack by someone and how it stop.  I stopped sharing, closed the homegroup, done everything I can think of.  Oh, when he began our network was my mother, me and suddenly www.factcheck.org appeared.  It's all downhill from there.  No identity now shows but definitely something to do.  I'm looking for?  I don't know what is supposed to be there and what isn't.  Help, please.  Thank you.

• The Alienware X 51 (r1) and 960 GTX

  So, I recently bought myself a GTX 960 4 GB PNY version for my 51 x video card. When it arrived I plugged it got the drivers installed and everything worked out perfectly well. After about 2-3 days of use my computer closed out of no where and will not turn back. The power button was turned on low, then it was still power 330 Watt power supply I. I unplugged my 960 and put my old 555 back in, and then the computer would be new just turn around as usual, with no problem. I have already contacted PNY and Amazon and they have a replacement card on the way to me. But my question is... What could cause the card have this problem? It was not hot, reaching only 79 degrees Celsius under load. Is the problem of my computer being a R1? I have to update my BIOS? (Always running A06). Is it possible I got a faulty card and it just happened to die only after a few days of use?

  My x 51 has the Intel i5 CPU 2320 3.0 ghz, 6 GB RAM and PSU of 330 watts.

  All thoughts of my situation before my 960 replacement happens?

  Suggestion:

  Upgrading the BIOS to A14 - Place on desktop & run.

• Got its not visual on Media player Vista

  I have Vista. My Windows Media Player transmits the sound from a chess site, but no visuals.

  I have read several posts on this topic and have no idea what they mean. I do not know a codec of a Badger, much less how to replace this unit or this security system and reprogram my Dell laptop.

  I wonder you think that those who are actually answers.

  I downloaded as much 'updates' on the media player I can find. No luck.

  It's old stuff. No problem with my old XP. I know that Vista is already old in your standards, but you know what? It still needs work.

  If there is a solution that a human being can follow in less than ten hours of screen reading online and without ruining his computer, please let me know what it might be.

  I am appalled to see that Vista can't handle this simple function that was never a problem on previous windows systems, I've had.

  Bill banks

  Hello Bill1809,

  Ø you're reading of the content online to your Media Player?

  You have this problem with videos or special videos that you are trying to play online?

  There are some file formats that require codecs to be installed to read the file type.

  Here is an article that should give you information about what a codec is:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/FAQ/codec.mspx

  Also check if your proxy settings are correct check that your proxy settings are correct:

  1. in Windows Media Player, on the Tools menu, click Options.

  2. in the Options dialog box, under the network tab, in the Streaming proxy settings area, check your settings. If you don't know what should be the proxy settings, select a Protocol, click on configure and then in the dialog box Configure Protocol, select automatically detect the proxy settings or use Web browser proxy settings. (The last parameter is available for the HTTP protocol only).

• How can I prevent videos from website run automatically?

  I run Media Center live and recorded tv in a small window during the visit of my favorite sites.  Many of the websites have articles I want to read as well as the same information in the form of a video (complete with ads).  I would like to know if there is a way to prevent, audio and video on websites to run automatically in Windows 7?  The audio portion of videos runs simultaneously with audio of Media Center what the audio of the two useless.

  I do however sometimes, visit video sites like Hulu and network sites to watch streaming tv shows of old and would need to be able to turn on audio/video on these Web sites.

  What is a setting in Windows or in the browser?  I usually use IE 11 for web browsing, but if there is another browser that offers more control over the audio/video Web sites I could without browsers.

  You can't control that, sorry.  Only the person who programmed the site can decide how the site works.  Or they can give you the control to choose, if they built these options on their Web sites.
