• Try to install the Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 - on SP3.

  Hello

  All this started when my Xbox360 is dead, sent it for repair, came home another, all hung up and tried to connect to the Media Center. Of course, it did not work and the screen says to uninstall? (something), I forgot today, it has been a long road since then. BUT I uninstalled Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 and updates that came after. NOW realize it was a mistake, I'm not of the Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 on your computer. And I'm confused regarding why, for the first time, that I can't find a single KB article on this problem.

  And even if I did not restore the system off, there is no restore point on my machine.

  So I'm always searching in google and microsoft.com but a little lost right now.

  Moccan,
  Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  I would like to know if you read this article for the hotfix rollup: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/900325.  In particular the section more information, which has this:

  If the 886904 update is installed, you must uninstall the 886904 update before you install the Update Rollup 2 for Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Otherwise, the installation of .NET Framework 1.1 SP1 will fail.

  To determine whether the 886904 update is installed, follow these steps:

  1. Click Start, click run, type appwiz.cpl, and then click OK.
  2. Click to select the Show updates check box.
  3. In the currently installed programs list, look for the following element:
     Fix for Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 (KB886904)

  If you see this option, you must remove the hotfix. To remove the patch, click Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Hotfix (KB886904), and then click Remove. Then, visit the Windows Update Web sit to download and install the Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.

• Problem, reinstall the Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

  I have problems with MCE 2005.  My hard drive crashed and the technician that restored my repressive said that he could not work in MCE 2005.  It's a shame because he was working before the hard drive crashes.  I work with windows XP.
  When I go to install the internet and begin to test the connection it gives me "Critical error of process - Code 2"
  When I go to the TV configuration, it tells me "Tuner not found".  Even if I know it works because I also Win TV7 in Hauppauge. My TV tuner is HVR-1600.
  With these problems, I thought that the solution might be to reinstall rollup 2 according to the Microsoft.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/910905
  However, when I go to reinstall the Update Rollup 2, it seems to be to establish a restore point and then it stops when it hits hotfix (KB891593).
  I took a copy of the mcelog and have attached a copy of the log below.

  Assistance or management, you can provide me to solve this problem would be highly appreciated.

  At this point, I'm a newbie to this and I don't have a clue as to the cause of my problems and any ideas you may have for me would be much appreciated.

Do not turn off your computer. I installed update readiness tool, but it does still every time. I tried to disable the antivirus software prior to installation.

• I ran the system analysis tool and without result updates still won't work.

  It seems I'm not the only one having problems with the updates of Windows 7. I ran the system analysis tool and without result updates still won't work. Is it possible miss me a the question .dll file not showing? I googled about it and still nothing.

  Appreciate any info someone might have on this

  Are there specific error messages or error report numbers given when it fails, or is it just apparently running, but does not find anything?

  If it is running, but apparently not finding anything, just leave it for a while 'loooooong. It was reported a few recent Wu take many hours to find anything, esp if she has a lot of updates to find and install.

  If its reports an error/message number, what (exactly) do report?

  Something to try:

  Update your anti-virus software and run a full scan. Then:

  If its doesn't work, check that service 'Windows Update' and 'Background Intelligent Transfer' are listed and running, according to the instructions of the ' how to check if services are running' section of this article - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2730071 IF you have actually the error referred to in article, try the FixIt.

  You can create more free space in C in carrying one of the measures suggested below.

  The default allocation for the restoration of the system is 12% on your C partition is more generous.

  I have them would be reduced by 700 MB.

  Make my computer right click on your icon, and select System Restore.

  Place the cursor on your C drive select settings but this time find the slider and drag it to the left until it shows 700 MB and output.

  When you get to the settings screen, click on apply and OK and leave.

  A flaw that might be useless which is for temporary internet files, especially if you keep no copies on the disk offline.

  Setting the default value is 3% of the walk.

  Depending on your attitude to copies offline, you could bring it to 1% or 2%.

  In Internet Explorer, select Tools, Internet Options, general, temporary Internet files, settings to make the change.

  At the same time, look at the number of days, the story stands.

  The default allocation for the basket is 10% of the disk.

  Change to 5%, which should be enough.

  In Windows Explorer hover over your Recycle Bin, right click and select Properties, Global and move the slider from 10% to 5%.

  However, try to let you become so complete that if it is complete and you delete a file by mistake it will bypass the Recycle Bin and have gone forever.

  If your drive is formatted as NTFS another potential gain arises with your operating system on your C drive.

  In the Windows directory of your C partition you will some uninstall files in your Windows folder in general: $NtServicePackUninstall$ and $NtUninstallKB282010$ etc.

  These files can be compressed or not compressed.

  If compressed text the name of the folder appears in blue.

  If not compressed you can compress.

  Right-click on each folder and select Properties, general, advanced, and check the box before you compress contents to save disk space.

  On the general tab, you can see the winning amount by deducting the size on disk size. File compression is only an option on an NTFS formatted disk partition / partition.

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, system information, Tools, Dr. Watson, and make sure the box in front of "Add to the existing rating" is NOT checked.

  This means that the next time that the log is written it will crush rather than adding to the existing file.

  The setting of maximum size by default for Event Viewer logs is too big.

  Reset the maximum value for each log from 512 KB to 128 KB and set it to crush.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308427/en-us>

  Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, disk cleanup to empty your trash and delete temporary Internet files.

• How to disable the annoying message "Printer cartridges no HP installed" on Windows 7?

  How to disable the annoying message "Printer cartridges no HP installed" on Windows 7? I have a HP Officejet 6500 has more and there is a way to disable those annoying pop ups. First of all, why HP can't fix their software to display only 1 message. If I turn on my printer, I get about 5 popups when the 3-minute delay. Is - this embarrassing? You bet, I do not turn off my printer more to avoid these messages. There must be a registry entry that I can delete gladly. Ideas? If you are an employee of HP, please do not give the Conference on "genuine cartridges" and how you take care of your printer. I've had my printer for 7 years and never had a problem with cartridges not HP. They are all made in China.

  This isn't a bad idea, but this does not resolve the issue. There are many complaints from customers about these annoying messages. All HP needs to do is to say to their developers to add a function to disable this feature. What is a marketing thing? Yes, it's a boring marketing question that should really be fixed. It's like Windows display constantly that your device drivers are not fully tested. Of course, when a customer buys a product at a lower price, they take this risk. I hate to be notified 365 days a year that my cartridges are not authentic.

  One faces this question erlier? then helpme out.

  Hello

  1. If your files are located on a remote file system, you will need to copy one of your files to the computer that Designer ODI runs to allow ODI retrieve the metadata of the file information.
  2. in the topology to create a physical schema, the directory you enter data and the scheme of work must point to this local file.
  3. then set the file data store in the designer of the ODI. Enter a name, browse and select the file and fill each deposited the files tab.

  * If it's a fixed file, click on the network icon in the column into the columns tab and have checked auto adjustment.
  * If it is a delimited file, use the reverse button on the columns tab to reverse the columns.
  * Right-click on the Datastore folder select View Data, if you can view the data, which means that store file data has been correctly set.
  * If this is not the case, check each tab of the database file to make sure that everything is set correctly and try again.

  4. once the display data to be successful, now change you directories (data and the scheme of work in topology) to point to the remote file system. These directories must be accessible to the ODI Agent that will be used to perform transformations. The directory can be an absolute path (m:/public/data/files) or a parent in the ODI Agent startup directory (.. files/demo /). It is strongly recommended to use a UNC (regardless of the location of execution) name for the path. Executing transformations "agentless", the directory is relative to the directory where Oracle Data Integrator was installed.

  You must have an agent process running on the system that contains your source file.
  Then during the race, the odi interface choose this agent.

  Thank you

• During the upgrade to Windows XP Media Edition 2004-2005 - do not go

  While upgrading from Windows XP Media Edition 2004 to XP ME 2005, I entered the 25-character product key and it would not take it. Then I tried to use the product key that came with my Sony VAIO that came with this version of Windows XP Media Edition 2004, it would not accept either. I am absolutely sure I had the correct product key because he was strong and had the Microsoft sticker on the package marked Upgrade of Windows XP Media Edition 2005. Could something else would cause because my ME XP 2004 had just been installed about two weeks ago. Earlier in the day (yesterday), SP 2 has been downloaded and installed.  I would point out product keys, but I don't want someone else to win by making and using my product key on their system. If you wish, I can give you my product keys for verification, if you wish.
