• Vista Sidebar and Media Player stopped working after uninstalling Mcafee and AVG installation

  Hi, I'm new to the Dell Forums, my apologies if this isn't the right place to post this.

  Yesterday, I decided to remove Mcafee completely from my Inspiron 6400 (running Vista Ultimate) and install the free version of AVG. First, I downloaded the http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=107083&lc=1033 and AVG Mcafee removal tool and was save on my desktop. I unplugged my internet connection, uninstalled Mcafee Security Center of programs & features (recommended by Mcafee), rebooted, then ran Mcafee Removal Tool Development. EXE, rebooted, installed the free version of AVG, went online and installed the AVG updates, performed a full scan with no errors. The system seems to work well, but then I noticed that the clock on Windows Sidebar gadget turned black, the deleted with only a yellow box calendar gadget. I tried to open Media Player, no luck because he would not just open. Tried to launch Media Player as an admin, no luck. While my connection is an admin one. There is another connection admin account so connected to this account, but you have the same problem. I did a system restore and also tried to create new accounts, but the same thing happens with the Gadgets and Media Player. I also ran startup repair by using the Vista DVD, no luck.

  Did somebody encountered this problem? There is an almost similar post under Vista (http://www.dellcommunity.com/supportforums/board/message?board.id=vista&message.id=41524&query.id=225388#M41524), but no solution. I had a feeling this uninstallation of Mcafee or running the Development. EXE may have messed up with the registry keys for the sidebar and Media Player. I also downloaded another gadget clock, no luck. Y at - it a fix for this? I don't want to install Mcafee again, as I had many problems with MCProxy and Spamkiller causing system crash and Mcafee has no solution so far. I also have spybot running on the system.

  I would appreciate if someone could help me with this. Thank you

  More likely, you have Movie Maker and just
  can't find it.

  Try the following steps...

  Reach... Start button / run...

  Type or paste the following text in the box run:

  Moviemk.exe

  Then press on... Come in.

  If Movie Maker is on your system... He's going to start.

  Windows Movie Maker 2.1 XP cannot change one. MP4 file...
  It would need to be converted to WMV format before
  import.

  Different are many times the retail converters and freeware
  available on the net...

  The following freeware converter is an example.

  If you are using Windows 7, you can try to run the troubleshooter of Performance or try to run the Fixit and see if it helps.

• Windows XP and Media Player will write not CD player

  Here's a strange.  Until recently, I could write on a blank CD through Windows (data files) or Media Player (music).  Now Windows says empty disc is a complete application so a blank disc and Media Player says I have no burner.  Funny is that Nero recognizes the burner and it will do the music CD.  I had to send files on my laptop to burn data CDs.  Checked the registry via RegEdit and not made the change to a single value, so that the player is CD - RW (from CD - R).  Got rid of the Roxio installed by Dell awhile, as I wasn't with her.  Have not yet done the utility disk via F12 at startup.

  So what don't understand me?

  Dell XPS400 1 CD - RW, 1 DVD - read-only, 1 DVD-R and one external and one internal HD Windows Media Edition

  
  

• Vista on Qosmio F20: SD card reader and Media Player keys do not work

  I recently updated my Qosmio F20 for Vista.
  I got most of the job functions, but my SD card reader and fixed keys for media player still haven't.

  I can't find the drivers for them (I don't think they exist for a F20) so I was wondering if anyone had a solution.

  Thank you

  Hi faarn

  You can't find the Vista drivers as Vista don t drivers is on the page of Toshiba. Some people have posted a link to the official document on the units of Vista support and the Qosmio G and F20 was not on the list.

  But another clue. Check the drivers in another series as F30 or G30. But the chances are small that the pilots will run

• Windows Vista using Media Player

• In the error message is Vista "Windows Media Player cannot play the file, might not support the codec used to compress the file.

  It worked very well what place please?

  * original title - Window Media Player cannot drive cannot read the file the player could does not load the file or may not support or does not support the codec used to compress the fichier.*

  Hello

  1. what changes have been made to your computer before the problem?
  2. the problem occurs on a particular file?
  3. What is the format of the file you want to play in Windows Media Player?

  You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

  (a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

  (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

  Windows media player will play only the files and videos only if it supports this type of file.

  Please see the bottom of the article that gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992

  If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

  WARNING OF THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE

  Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• Windows 7 Professional 32 bit and Media player 12 play DVD files on the hard disk of the PC.

  I want to be able to read dvd files (vob files) with media player 12 by selecting the folder and then just click on play like no other product like power dvd or nero showtime, but I don't understand how to do this with wmp12.  Also why can I not add the vob files to the media library with wmp12?  Vob files appear in the Windows libraries outside wmp12, but when I add a folder to your video library in wmp12 they never appear in areas of the screen to play.  Wmp12 not allow vob files to add to the library or what?  I intend streaming files my blu - ray player from my network home using dlna.  All the other files except the vob files will flow from wmp12.  Whats up with that?
