    And I click on the link titled "Stand Alone Version" - here is the link https://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5B33B5A8-5E76-401F-BE08-1E1555D4F3D4

    Hello

    In addition to the advice given by Jose Antonio Ponton Posada CEO, you can also have a look at the response of Shenan Stanley on 20 October 2012 in this thread.

    As Tommy mentioned, you can download and it save on the same computer. You can also download the Service Pack on a different computer and transfer to install it on the requested computer.

  • Unable to download windows media player mobile so I can borrow video from my public library

    I'm trying to understand how to download windows media player mobile for my palm centro, so I can borrow the video from my pubilc library.  I have the regular windows medial player on my windows xp home desktop, but when I tried to download the mobile player on the site, I was invited to install microsoft activesync - I did it but microsoft activesync does not recognize my palm centro.  Any advice?

    Hello BETTIE, welcome to the Palm support community.

    What you're trying to do cannot be done!  Windows Media Player Mobile isn't a PalmOS program - it is a program for Windows Mobile.

    ActiveSync is also a Windows program, designed for your computer and will not work with a PalmOS device.

    What format is the video that you are trying to view?  What is a DVD?  It is in the form of .wmv?

    There are several programs for sale which can read files in format .wmv - CorePlayer, and Kinoma EX player are two that come to mind.

    DVD converters are also for sale.  See this link in the section Audio, video and Photo of the forum:

  • Unable to download windows XP service pack 1

    Hi I did a restore on my Dell desktop computer I bought in 2002.  I reformatted the hard drive and reloaded from the original CD of windows supplied with the system.  This version is prior to SP1.  When I try to download SP1 on the microsoft site, the process starts then stalls.  I get the message "unable to connect to the server.  Any advice on how I can get SP1?  Thank you

    Are you using Windows update to download the file or are download you from the section? Forget to sp1a Get sp1 from HERE. Save it to your desktop and run it. Once installed, get sp3 from HERE. Yet once, save the file to your desktop then run it. Make sure you disable any anti-virus before installing software or the other.

    Thank you

    Hi simon13,.

    Well, I tried to download drivers on the Web site that you posted but I can't notice t a problem. All three drivers tried to downloaded are worked correctly.

    Maybe it was a temporary problem and Toshiba did solve this problem. I think you should try it again. :)

  • Unable to download Windows Movie Maker 2.1

    With Windows XP, Windows Movie Maker 2.1 should be automatically downloaded with SP2.   I have Windows XP and use Movie Maker for a few years. Today, I had to do a destructive system recovery. The recovery got Windows XP (SP 1).  After that recovery was complete I downloaded and installed all Windows updates essential, including the SP 2 and 3, but I still don't have Windows Movie Maker 2.1. I went to Windows updates several times and tried to find Movie Maker without success. The date of search engine update takes me to the elbow that lead me to updates of Windows where I can not find the Movie Maker download.

    It is without a doubt part of SP2 and do it. It is perhaps missing in the menu accessories.

    Search for "C:\Program Movie Maker\moviemk.exe".

    If she's here, create your own shortcut.

    How to reinstall Windows Movie Maker

    NOTE: You must be logged in as an administrator or as a member of the Administrators group to perform this procedure.

    Click Start, click Run, and then type the following command:
    %SystemRoot%\Inf

    NOTE: There no space at all in the preceding command line.

    Click OK to open the INF folder.
    Locate the file moviemk.inf
    Right click on the file and then click on install. This will reinstall the files of research should proceed normally.

    You will be asked to place your windows XP cd rom in the drive.

    Or you may be able to refer to the Service Pack installation files.

    Hello

    I'm WU notify the value and then I click to install. Updates to April 2016 installed OK.

    In may initially tried to install on the 20th (we had been absent) and just hanging at 0%. Tried again the next day and got the same. Run malwarebytes, spybot, and then full scan AVG (free version). Not bad found, only the usual tracking cookies which I deleted. I tried to install again still clinging to %. I ran sfc/scannow nothing reported and wrote a check for windows and tried again the next day - even once stuck at 0%. Tried a couple of times over the next few days, tried with temporarily off AVG and even with the firewall-no joy. Then the updates installed normally may 26. I assumed (wrongly) that it was a problem at the end of microsoft which had been fixed.

    This month, I get the same hanging of 0%. I went through my usual as cheques above but it sticks just at 0% then when I cancel and close there give the install updates and shutdown option, but there's nothing to install.  When I cancel the update process (after trying for long periods of time and still stuck at 0%) Although it cancels and closes the window, the Task Manager show sychost.exe using more 50% usage do so select services, and then stop the service wupdate or it really slows down this poor old machine.
