  • Repair Windows Media Center for Windows 7

    I'm having a problem with Windows Media Center. Whenever I try to open it, it says it has stopped working and he's looking for the problem. Then it does nothing... I can't do a system restore, simply because there is no restore point on the computer. It won't let me download an older version. It's not even in my list of programs. I am running Windows 7 on a computer that came with Vista Home Basic, so it has some difficulties sometimes still. Is there a way I can fix the program? Can someone help me please?

    Go to the Control Panel and select programs and features

    In the upper-left corner of the window, select turn Windows features on or OFF.

    Expand the entry for the multimedia features (select the plus sign (+).)

    Only uncheck Windows Media Center

    Select OK.

    Restart your computer.

    Go back and put a check in the box, and then restart your computer.

  • Windows 7 Media Center blocks all programs start - HELP - green buttons everywhere

    Hello

    I have a laptop Acer Windows 7 (new) / and Office XP - Office 7 free trial ran out. Anyway, I can't open any programs on my computer since the implementation of Media Center.

    Last night, I downloaded from CNET programs, including the FreeZonlineTV and a few others. I remember during Setup, Media Center was downloading something that took a long time - I thought that it was creating a library or something - it was late - sorry. In any case, this morning the download is complete, I have a bunch of little green buttons on all my programs on the desktop (shortcuts). I also have this same green button on everything in my Start menu, (i.e., Skype, ITunes, MRI, Internet Explorer, Microsoft Word, Mozilla Firefox, etc.) When I click on any of them, the media goes full screen. It does not actually close. It is now in my taskbar - I can't minimize it - it appears full screen again when I try. I decreased the size of the window now, and there's just on the side of my desk.

    I tried Ctrl/Alt/Del and ending the Media Center, but it just POPs right up again. I tried to delete or disable Media Center, but when I'm in the section of the control panel I need to disable to turn it off, media center pop up and don't let not even get me in the section where I can check or uncheck something.

    I can not restore - media center stop the it. I. Please help - I can't even open word documents - this is urgent. Oh, it also disabled by AVG and other antivirus programs so I can't even scan. I ran Advance care system and did a diagnostic scan - found defrag required - done - but, when I tried to get into other programs on Advance care system, guess what - a bunch of little green buttons on all of these programs as well.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

  • Windows Media Center: Photos are wrong / unknown Date

    Windows Media Center 12 with Windows 7.

    Displaying photos with WMC in chronological order, it shows a date of 01/09/2010.  This date is not on the information file, or within the Exchangeable Image File (EXIF) metadata format.  Whence this date?  I want to display the photos in chronological order according to the indication of date of file, such as 'Date Modified'.  There are tools out there to view and modify file dates and so dates EXIF, but I don't see whence this date 01/09/2010.  My smart TV is also picking up this date 01/09/2010 and it is why my photos are displayed out of sequence.

    I do digital images from slides using a scanner and then download on my PC.  The scanner is filling some EXIF metadata but no date.

    Whence this date?  Is he created somehow?  Is she on the Smart TV as well?

  • How to restore my files out of windows media center?

    for some reason when I saved a file in another file it changed my entire system to play windows media center nonstop... now he always plays and I can't control it.

    My husband has had the same problem for another reason however, he managed to correct the problem by restarting the computer... by pressing the F8 key at all times as it has been restarted.  It opens a window which says "fix."  In this form it was to "restore the computer to an earlier date" as one of his choices.  Go back as much as necessary and click on restore.  It fixed my problem.  I have tried many other alternatives and this is what finally worked.  Another option reopened as Media Center.  Good luck.

  • Make a "Compaq"factory restore"full" on my XP Media Center computer.

    Friday, April 8, 2011, I tried to do a 'Compaq 'full restore factory' "on my XP Media Center computer.

    I tried to get SP3 for a SINGLE COMPUTER, as you explained in this article, (Article 322389 ID) by turning "updates automatic." One hundred updates "downloaded". Up to BUT NOT including SP3!

    I think it's because he "worked" from the former "windows update site," not update.microsoft.com, telling me that I needed SP3 on my computer to go!

    That's why I didn't see no choice but to download the stand-alone "SP3 for the professionals. In addition to the extra time much this added, it seemed to "wipe out" much of what was already on the computer.

    1 is there still a way now to get the most appropriate for an SP3 computer?

    2 How much time the owner of a working XP computer will be able to do a 'factory restore' on his computer and then return all the updates?

    Sincerely,

    Alan

    > It seemed to "wipe out" much of what was already on the computer.

    Since the installation of the SP3 do not destroy anything, please explain what you mean by that.
    > 1. Is it still possible now to get the most appropriate for an SP3 computer?
    It has been my experience that this autonomous particular drop (WindowsXP-KB936929-SP3 - x 86 - ENU.exe) is the best to use. However, there is a good way to install, making sure Internet Explorer is still at the level of IE6 and no program of security antivirus or other is running at the time of installation. If you need step-by-step instructions, let me know.
    > 2. How long the owner of a working XP computer will be able to do a 'factory restore' on his computer and then return all the updates?
    Until April 2014.
    When you have restored your Compaq to its original state, do you also all 'trialware' like Norton or McAfee programs?
    Also know that some Compaqs and HPs (those who have AMD CPUs) must be changed before installing SP3. For more information:

  • Restoration of disks for HP M7250N Media Center XP

    I have a HP Media Center Desk Top System Mod # M - 7250N who has Win XP Media Center 32 bit single core cpu Intel 2.8 and 4 GB of ram installed. I bought the computer new from Best Buy a few years ago. I had a breakdown of complete hard drive a few weeks ago. I'm looking for my restore disks but could not locate them. I contacted HP support and was advised that he would convey restore disks to me when they become available. It is some time now with no response and I don't think that I will get no help on that date. My wife uses the system of family history research and I was after her forever to save things, but that was not done.

    Hi, Terry:

    You probably know more to get the HP recovery discs I do since you called them and they said they would send them when back in stock.

    The problem with that is that they're probably never coming back back in stock.

    However, this place has a set of $27 + shipping costs.

    .. and Yes, your PC can run Windows 7 well. I checked the specifications and all the hardware is windows 7 capable.

    Alternatively, you can check for yourself by running the free W7 Upgrade Advisor from Microsoft. All your other stuff connected and turned on like printers, scanners, etc.

    The program will scan and report his ability to work on W7.

    Here is the link to this tool.

    However, from the cost point of view, it would be cheaper for you to order a set of recovery disks.

    Kind regards
