Setting up Windows for watching TV

Don't try to do it via the Media Center in Windows 7 I advise me "no found channels. Suite of messages suggested earlier I went to task - settings - TV - Guide intends to change channels, but the only option listed was Guide terms of service. Can anyone help?

Hey Grant,

Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

I suggest that you try to repair Windows Media Center and see if it helps.

1. click on the Start icon and select Control Panel > programs and features.

2. Select from the turning on or OFF Windows features.

3 extend the media features and uncheck the box for Windows Media Center.

4. Select OK and restart your system.

5. once the system reboots, go back and check the box for Windows Media Center.

I hope this helps. Please respond if you have related research.

Kind regards

Jesinta Rozario

    How can I set up Vista so that the PC does not switch to another window (for example the Spy Sweeper alerts) while I am playing a game?

    Vista is not in control of this technique. Spy Sweeper needs to have an option to control that. If this isn't the case, then it is badly programmed. Flight of focus (go to another window) when it is actually needed is a big no-no for the design. I find this option, if I were you :)

    It goes the same for Microsoft Edge, select Microsoft Edge in the list instead of Adobe Acrobat.

  • HP ENVY 750-175se: stuck on "Set up Windows" - fresh install of Windows 7

    Hello

    I have a new install of Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit on my desktop HP Envy. I installed myself, everything went well. However, now when I am setting up Windows (on the screen where it says "Select a username for your account and your computer name to distinguish it from the network"), the keyboard nor the mouse work.

    The mouse on the background light is on and both work until I have start Windows (ie. the BIOS) and both are plugged into the USB 2.0 ports. I tried different USB ports around the system, but that did not work at this stage (well that as well the mouse and keyboard worked for the previous points of the facility before the restart brought me to this screen). I tried to disable Legacy Support in the BIOS, but that only returns an error message saying "Boot Device Not Found". I tried another keyboard that I know works on other systems, no difference here. I did research online that some users recommend using a PS/2 keyboard, but there is no port for a on this machine. I'm literally not to penetrate into my operating system, but none of the USB devices work. I've also seen suggestions about how to disable of EHCI or XCHI driver settings Pre-boot in the BIOS but I can't even find those on this BIOS. So maybe someone knows I am missing a setting in BIOS that can help me out here or something? Thank you!

    Hello:

    Here is what, in my view, the problem is...

    Intel has removed support for USB 2.0 chipset chipset Skylake.

    This means that only USB or normal DVD installs windows 7 will not work.

    Microsoft Windows 7 ISO not the USB 3.0 drivers natives either.

    Therefore, add USB 3.0 drivers in Windows ISO.    Intel has on it.  They have a utility that does all the work for you.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/download/25476/Windows-7-USB-3-0-creator-utility

    Run the utility and point your support Installation USB and windows 7 above should install.

    There is a readme on the link above for instructions on how to convert your DVD in a bootable usb flash drive.

  • Error message: "Preparation set up windows, do not turn off your computer" when to stop the system.

    Original title: closure of the problem

    Almost everytime I turn off my laptop, I get the message ' Preparation set up windows, do not turn off your computer . Then it takes forever to finally stop. Suggestions for this problem?.

    Hi ArthurCosford,

    This screen appears when you have pending Windows updates must be installed on the system or when you installed the Windows updates on the system.

    Step 1:

    You can check the windows updates history to discover updates recently and failed to install.

    For more information, you can consult the following article:

    See the Windows updates are installed

    Step 2:

    If there are updates failed, then try to download and install the stand-alone package with updates from the Microsoft Download Center.

    a. to download updates from the Microsoft Download Center

    b. Enter the item number in the field search and download the same.

    c. double-click on the downloaded file.

    d. click on run and follow the wizard to install it.

    Hope this information is useful.

  • Windows 7 - preparation set up windows. Do not turn off.

    I got this new toshiba laptop with windows 7 and it starts up and started using it. activated the 30 days free trial norton, surfing the internet and worked on some pictures for my sister. When I went to close it it says something like "installation 59 updates ' he has done fast enough, then it turned off. I went to meet my sister and when I turned on the laptop, he said 'preparation set up windows. do not turn off"he was stuck on this for hours, about 2 or 3. I thought that maybe he was stuck so I turned it off. I turned it back and he was still stuck on this same configuration screen. I turned off then turned it back and went into safe mode. I did a restore to before the updates 59 which was only a few hours earlier. I restarted the laptop and it looked pretty good. then I noticed he was saying something about the norton is maybe defective. he wouldn't let me turn on the antivirus and firewall. he wouldn't let me enter the network. I can't get on the internet basically can't do anything. It seems to work, but it is not. now, whenever I stopped it it starts to install the updates and when I start it again, it goes to the preparation set up the screen. I even left it for a day and a half on the screen configuration and nothing. What is the problem with my laptop brand new?

    Usually a single word explains what causes these problems - Norton !
    Is the laptop still under warranty? If so, Toshiba needs then provide support for problems with the operating system.

    Instead of contact Toshiba, then through the dance where they try to blame Microsoft and will not help you, if the laptop is a recent purchase so I suggest you press on press F8 key just after you press the power button.
    If you do not press F8 in time then Windows 7 will attempt to load and you will have to wait until she did try to do.
    Shut down the laptop and reboot again, by pressing F8 to only a Boot Menu appears.

    In the upper-left corner of the Start Menu should be a link to repair your computer .
    Choose this option.
    The System Recovery Options window should now appear. This is what it will look like - What are the system recovery options windows 7?
    At the bottom of this list there should be a Toshiba provided option that will allow you to do a clean/restore Windows 7 install.
    If she's not here so Toshiba should have provided you with a recovery with which disk you can boot up the laptop and then access the system recovery.

    Do a clean reinstall of Windows 7 (a format of the hard drive) and the installation of Windows 7.
    Once you have done this, and the system has rebooted for the last time, uninstall all Norton products immediately by clicking on the start ORB,
    in the field of research to install type.
    Under control panel, click on the link "view the programs that are installed on your computer.
    After you have uninstalled the Norton "tricks", restart the system.

    Update the computer laptop now, install the updates offered in groups of 10 only ! Yes it's more slow their installation at once, but... you already know the result to install all updates at once, right?

    When all updates and required reboots are finished, suggest you only install the freeMicrosoft Security Essentials or Avast.
    Both are valid antivirus programs, and both are compatible with Windows 7.

  • Windows Update is blocked/stands/the download. MSE is hooked on the download of the update. "Preparation set up windows." message on farm.

    I have Windows Update problems , starting on 25/05/10.  I've updated from Windows XP Pro sp3 for Win7 Pro in January and had no problems until 4 days ago.

    -The update says, there are updates available, but by clicking on the download button, it crashes just at 0%.

    -MSE did the same at a standstill in the middle of updates

    -Furthermore, I get the message 'preparation set up windows.  Do not turn off your computer"when I turned off the computer , but not when I turn it on.  I ended up leaving it and the computer is off when I wake up the next morning.  It does not when I turn on the computer.

    -Win7 now has an icon in the task bar that says ' Windows is downloading updates (all 95%). ", but stated that, for 4 days, and nothing is downloaded.

    -I have no update failed I can find in the history of the update.

    -Convenience store has not fixed anything.

    -Remove pending.xml and reboot.xml did not work.  There is a reboot.xml in the directory, but no pending.xml file.  Any attempt to remove reboot.xml (modification date 26/12/2009) generated the message: "You need permission SYSTEM to make changes to this file."  Attempts to delete the file in an administrator command prompt was an error: "access is denied".

    -There is no restore points saved for me to come back to.  System Restore has not been configured properly and had no space to save a restore point (it does now).

    -starting in safe mode works very well.  Restart in SafeMode to normal mode works great, but the problems persist.

    So what's next?

    Did you or did you not (1) uninstall Comodo Firewall, (2) active Windows Firewall, (3) reset Windows Update by KB971058 (the difficulty it running in mode by DEFAULT and AGGRESSIVE) and (4) then restarted?
