Procss of recovery for HP Media Center PC

Try to restore my PC.  Had to change the hard drive.  The new drive came from HP.  Having bad start to load the restore disks.  Get the message "reboot and select proper boot device."  DVD drive is identified in the configuration of the F10. I think the DVD drive is bad and needs to be replaced.  Any suggestions?

Thanks Hank

Vaika, thanks for your help.  Your advice made me think outside the box.  I unplugged the internal DVD player and connected an external DVD player (same type) to the USB port and the restoration of the system started working.   Thank you once again.

    Hello

    Thanks for posting the question in the Microsoft Community forums.

    According to the description, you need to know more about the Tv tuner and tuner Radio (FM) for Windows Media Center.

    To listen to the FM radio in Media Center, you will need a tuner FM connected to or installed on your computer and an antenna connected to the tuner to receive a signal. FM tuners are very similar to TV tuners in fact, many TV tuner cards have a built in FM tuner.

  • How to select the output device HDMI as audio playback for Windows Media Center device

    Output audio media center units

    Hello

    I'm trying to set up my media center from windows to windows media center of output through a separate audio device audio device by default.

    In this case, I have hdmi output that I want to be the output for windows media center and my realtek analog to be the default for all the rest.

    So my overall question is how I make windows media center requires is not the default audio device.

    Thank you

    Andrew

    Method 1 is useless. Does that change the audio device by default in the system, what the user seeks specifically not to do.

    Method 2 has no effect at all on Media Center.
    The answer seems to be no, Media Center only works with the audio output device by default.

    Computer crashed. active hard drive & ok. virus taken flight. Computer came with XP Media Center 2005 and Office already installed. It's a HP Pavilion. HP sells more spare parts because it is more than 5 years old. Where can I find an another disk operating system? Don't want to lose Office. Not too worried about anything else.

    burn the Hiren s cd in order to get at least to the desktop, you need to do is to look at the drive in disk management and see if a second partition is listed on the player, that would be the recovery partition.

    If a recovery partition is not displayed, you can use hiren to repair the registry:

    http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-system/error-missing-or-corrupt/a1cf7ecf-e6c8-4546-AB88-f0e5abde7a13?msgId=52ff9278-5721-4B37-8887-700e274493b8

    read the response from Wunders for instructions on repairing the registry hive.

    But first traveled with the parameter/r hiren checkdisk, instructions are in my reply with download the hiren.

    Here are the instructions to burn a bootable cd with the recovery console, you do not have installation cd.

    Here's how to make a bootable xp recovery console cd

    Courtesy of JoseIbarra

    You need start by booting in XP using a CD Recovery Console, you can do (no XP media required) and run a chkdsk with error correction command enough times until it is clean and if it does not, you can create a new boot.ini file (this is usually one of two things).

    Here's how:

    Use the XP Recovery Console to check the file system on your HARD drive and fix the problems and then try to start your system - this may be all you need to do.  Or, you are welcome to just start trying things that might work.

    Boot into the Recovery Console Windows using an XP bootable installation CD.

    If you have no XP bootable media (or aren't sure you have) create a bootable XP Recovery CD of Console and do not forget what you have (no XP media required).

    This is not the same as recovery disks that might have come with the acquisition of the system store.

    You can make a bootable Recovery Console CD by downloading an ISO file and burn it to a CD.

    The ISO bootable image file you need to download is called:

    RC. ISO

    Download the ISO from here:

    http://www.thecomputerparamedic.com/?p=8    (courtesy of Daavee)

    Use a new CD and this simple and free program to burn your ISO file and create your bootable CD:

    http://www.ImgBurn.com/

    When you install ImgBurn, DO NOT install the Ask toolbar.

    Here are some instructions for ImgBurn:

    http://Forum.ImgBurn.com/index.php?showtopic=61

    It would be a good idea to test your bootable CD on a computer running.

    You may need to adjust the computer BIOS settings to use the CD-ROM drive as the first device to boot instead of the hard drive.  These adjustments are made before Windows tries to load.  If you miss it, you will need to restart the system again.

    When you start on the CD, follow the instructions:

    Press any key to boot from CD...

    Installing Windows... going to pronounce.

    Press 'R' to enter the Recovery Console.

    Select the installation that you want to access (usually 1: C:\WINDOWS)

    You may be asked to enter the password (usually empty).

    You should be in the folder C:\WINDOWS.  It's the same as the

    C:\Windows folder that you see in Solution Explorer.

    The Recovery Console allows base as file commands: copy, rename, replace, delete, chkdsk, fixboot, fixmbr, cd, etc.

    For a list of the commands in the Recovery Console, type help at the prompt of commands or read on here XP Recovery Console:

    http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/recovery_console_cmds.mspx?mfr=true

    A good idea before you start things must first verify the integrity of your file system by using the chkdsk command.

    In the command prompt window, run the chkdsk command on the drive where Windows is installed to try to fix any problems on the afflicted player.

    Running chkdsk is fine, even if he finds no problem.  It won't hurt anything to run it.

    Assuming your boot drive is C, run the following command:

    CHKDSK C: /r

    Let chkdsk finish to correct the problems, he could find.

    It may take a long time for chkdsk complete or they seem to be "stuck".  Be patient. If the HARD drive led blinks always, chkdsk is something.  Keep an eye on the amount of the percentage to be sure that it is still making progress.  It may even seem to go back sometime.

    You must run chkdsk/r again until it finds no error to correct.

    Remove the CD, and then type "exit" to exit the RC and restart the computer.

    You have not to set the BIOS to boot the disk HARD since the CD won't be.

    you will need to burn the cd from a working pc
