  • Media Player11 will not play video (DVD disc). The sound is fine and a DVD decoder was installed.

    Where to start... After you download the necessary drivers and also I was able to get my sound work. Then, I bought and downloaded the dvd decoder, InterVideo DVD XPack. When I put a DVD in the drive, Media Player appears and I press play and I hear the sound but I do not see any video!

    I tried to download and use other video players, but none have worked so far. Everyone give me reasons why they can not read/play the disc or separate errors. Some have suggested that I change my screen resolution or color quality. I have and nothing makes a difference. Only, I can choose between 800 x 600 or 1024 x 768 (16-bit or 32-bit).

  • How to install the compatible DVD decoder on Equium M50?

    My laptop is model Equium M50-164 PSM57E-002004AV

    After format, I lost DVD decoder.
    How can I install compatible DVD decoder?

    Can you please explain how you mean exactly and what OS do you have?
    You have reinstalled Windows using the Toshiba Recovery disk?

    Normally, you can play DVDs with Windows media player and so you n t need additional software or driver.
    Also, I prefer VLC media player. This little player can play audio and video files more and its freeware.

    If you need a codec pack that you should search with Google K-Lite Mega Codec Pack. It is very good ;)

    Good luck!

  • HP DV7-4020sa fan - cleaned noise and still make the noise

    Hello.

    I need help with my laptop. It is a DV7-4020sa.

    Since I bought the laptop (used) the fan made a horrible squeaky sound. I decided to fix it today so dissambled laptop computer and gave the fan a good clean and also put some wd40 on the axis of the fan.

    Unfortunately, after reassembling, the fan still makes noise. It's strange because if I pull the screen/lid slightly towards me, it stops the noise, and also if I apply pressure to the lower part on the base where the fan is located.

    Should I buy a new/submitted fan new to replace it, or is there a fix I can apply?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello:

    More than likely, the bearings of the fan are in ruins, and the only solution would be to replace the Fan/Heatsink combo.  The fan is not sold separately.

    Your model equipped with a discrete video adapter according to the product specification, so you should be the Fan/Heatsink Assembly which, according to the maintenance manual, includes hardware replacement, intended only to computer models with graphical subsystems with discrete memory.  Part # 606575-001 HP.

    It's quite expensive at $84.28, but I do not buy a used assembly (if you could find another one) and eventually encounter the same problem on the line.

    http://h20141.www2.HP.com/hpparts/Search_Results.aspx?mscssid=00CD1EC2A53945949E211F17A82B64FC&SearchIn=PartNumber&SearchPN=606575-001

    Sometimes this happens because users simply spray a jet of compressed air into the fan intake and exhaust air vent covers, which is perfectly OK, as long as you place a PIN or something that can get through the protection grid, between two of the fan blades to prevent it from turning.

    It is not a contest to see how fast or strong you can do this fan to lament when cleaning, because that's how the bearings get ruined.  They are delicate and only designed to handle a certain RPM range.

    One can only imagine how far beyond this tolerance range fan bearings can go, when they are subjected to a jet of compressed air of a jet!

  • I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.

    DVD decoder not installed?

    I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.
    A few weeks ago, I played DVD on my computer. I would like to know what is happening. Any ideas/suggestions?

    I tried to play one of the same DVDs I played before... same message.  Nothing to my knowledge has been removed from my computer and I'm the only one with access... "very confused.

    Thanks if anyone can help.

    Yes, and if you install the utility on your system, you'll see all decoders.

    The utility will also tell you if a decoder is compatible or not.

    Using Media Player version 10 or 11?

    the utility tells me I have no decoder... the only thing I can think is that if I actually deleted it... I rarely remove anything because I do not add a lot... but it is possible a few weeks ago, I have to get rid of some things (I'm quite cautious because I'm not an expert).   It is the Media Player version 11, I was trying to use... but I rebooted now 10 to see if there was something to update related that mess.

    because I used the VLC Player successfully, I have not yet tried Windows Media Player (since WMP reloading and load the codec pack)

    So great to have the entry of a person who knows what he's doing.  Thanks again. I will try the Windows Media Player later and see if I have his use of return.

    Have a great day!

    Thank you Jesus, I bought an extended warranty at FRYS for three additional years.

    of course it does not cover the screen is broken... but vizio is great.

    everyone having this problem

    the system is64bit and the driver for the cd is a 32-bit... and why the pilot ancient... Since 2006?

    The driver for the cd isn't as drivers for other devices... it's buried deep in the operating system in a layer that is probably there since Windows 2000. Your drive has failed and needs to be replaced. Are you sure that Frys extended warranty does not cover the screen? Some of them have no protection against accidental damage.
