Player and Media center stop working

• My Windows 7 Media Player and Media Center disappeared

  I have a Dell studio xps, 64 bit, Windows 7 ultimate 2010 edition computer. Not being not able to identify what was going on with her, I called technical support. She concluded that a driver had to be updated and I had a virus. (I have Norton and System Mechanic, and Malware Bytes) It has been never picked up by my virus software.

  Everything was a lot until this morning and I discovered that I didn't have Windows Media Player and no Media Center either.

  I spent the day doing research and trying to find the answer, but I couldn't.  I found a similar question to mine, but it was in vista (like evertime that I look for a solution to a problem for 7, all I can find is for vista).

  Thank you very much for the help.

• Creation of DVD Windows Media Player, Media Center, stop working

  I use Windows Vista and that you cannot use Windows Media Center, Media Player, Media Player Classic or Windows DVD Maker.

  When I try and play a video file for example, I immediately have an error message saying that "Windows Media Player has stopped working. A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Same message for attempting to use one of the other programs listed.

  I tried to reboot, I checked for updates and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 installed and I used the Microsoft fix it solution to 'Windows Media Player stops responding after you install a third-party product that registers its own version of the Wmp.dll file' (using both the "fix it for me" and "Let me fix it myself" options).

  Unfortunately that I do not have a restore to restore point, my only option was to restore to the point before you install Windows Vista Service Pack 2, but my problem before this.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated! I think that the problem may have started when I updated a program, I used without any problems in the past ("Format Factory"), because I can't think of anything that may have done so.

  Thank you!

• If I remove windows media player windows Media Center always works

  I never use windows media player but I use XP Media Center Edition 2005 to record TV programs, I have watch on a different media player.

  Can I remove Media PLayer without harming the Media Center?

  Thank you very much James

  You can't really uninstall Media Player from all current versions of Windows, it is a central element.  It is best to not not muck on that.  Also notes that some readers of third part depend on Media Player components working properly, ask only trouble if you muck on this.

• Media player vs Media Center

  What is the difference between the media player and media center?

  You can play most of the things in media center that you can play in media player. However, you can also use a TV tuner in Media center as well.

• Help with DMA2100-CA. Media Center stop itself.

  Hello. This problem started 2-3 weeks ago. When I go to the "videos" section in Media Center on my TV, try to select a file to play, a message will appear 'Media Center stops'. Then he goes to the logoff screen and stops. The Media Center to reboot, it goes to the screen to reconnect. Once reconnected, Media Center again, but still the same problem.

  Funny is that she will play some files and not others. All files are technically the same Xvid avi. Some files will play with no synchronized sound and some will break Media Center as soon as I select them.

  Online TV works fine. Photos and music work very well.

  Help, please

  Hello

  Now that you mentioned that the MediaCenter Application on the PC has a problem too, then this is the source of the problem. If the MediaCenter Application on the PC hangs even without the DMA2100 lit, then something has gone wrong with the application on the PC and that the error is to be cascaded when you use the DMA2100. As mentioned earlier, you might really need to do a system restore to the time where you don't have yet of all the errors on the MediaCenter Application or you can find the exact Windows update that causes the issue related to the MediaCenter Application on the PC and remove/uninstall it.

  On the link of the forum below, he mentions that the MediaCenter Application breaks down can also be caused by a CODEC that has been installed or even drivers for the video card.

  I hope this helps.
