Vista screensaver stopped working because it requires a newer video card or Direct 3D compatibility

• Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.

  Hello

  I recently rebooted my computer; (Packard Bell) and now cannot run games or screen savers because it does not start. I think my problem has something to do with a Direct3D card? When I run screensavers, I get this message:

  Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D.

  I have the impression that sound when I run the 3D games, such as minecraft or GMOD.

  I run on Windows Vista Edition Home Premium and does not do anything but re - install my computer because it wouldn't start.

  It is not as if the graphics card is not there, so I'm really confused!

  Please help me, like playing games is my favorite thing. ;)

  I also ran minecraft to double check and I got this error code:

  Bad video card drivers!

  -----------------------

  Minecraft could not start because it did not find an accelerated OpenGL mode.

  Generally, this can be corrected by updating the video card drivers.

• Cannot run the screen saver because it requires a newer video card or one that is compataible with Direct3D. Hotfix does not work/run

  I am running windows 7 ultimate, 64-bit, SP1

  The screen savers say they can't run, they need a new video card, or a compatible with direct3d.

  I ran the fix.  The issue is pending. Hotfix: KB2159238

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/2159238

  All of the video drivers are up to date and they support Direct3D.

  Seems a lot of people have this issue - how to fix? Yet once again, the fix does not work (says "this update is not applicable to your computer")

  

  

  Hello Dave,

  Thank you for your response.

  I appreciate your time and your concern.

  It is normal that the fix is made for the Windows 7 version without service pack 1.

  I hope you can try the following methods provided in the previous post.

  However, if the problem persists, I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall display drivers.

  Step 1:
  Uninstall the display driver.

  a. Click Start, type Device Manager in the start search box and press ENTER.
  b. expand 'graphics', right-click on the map and click Uninstall.
  c. restart the computer, if the prompt message.

  Step 2:
  Install the latest driver to display from this link:

• Receive the error "Windows Media Center Receiver Service stopped working and was closed" after the video card replaced

  I have a HP computer with Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit) Service Pack 2.  He has a VISX PureTV tuner card and already had an NVidia GeForce 8400 graphics card.  This Setup has worked well for 2.5 years until what the graphics card died last week.  It has been replaced with an ATI Radeon HD3450 and both all Windows updates have made current.  Since that time, the TV tuner did not work.

  When you sign in to an account, it gives the error message "Windows Media Center Receiver Service stopped working and was closed".  I can use Media Center to watch the recorded video before, but if I try to watch live TV he hangs up and close Media Center.  If I try to configure the TV connection in Media Center it tells me that there is no tuner card.

  I looked at the map and see no problem and I tried it back in place.  He has the most up to date drivers (so does the new Radeon graphics btw).  I tried "Uninstall" in the Manager of devices and then put it back, but it was not good.

  "Windows Media Center Receiver Service Stopped Working and was closed" I tried all the fixes I've seen this error.

  I tried all the things I saw here and elsewhere related to this issue.  I did a "clean boot" with all non-Windows services and the disabled startup process.  He always did the same thing and gave the same mistakes.  It seems to be linked to a Windows service, and I hesitate to begin deactivation to track down.

  I ran 'sfc' in mode 'cmd' and he found no problem and none of the files to be fixed or could not fix.

  In the list of services, I changed the login for "Windows Media Center Receiver Service" to "Local System account", Local Service, Network Service and individual accounts, but no permits.

  I'm afraid I'm at the point of having to reload the Vista, but I don't know how to do this and want to avoid at all costs.  I don't have the recovery disks and software.  Is this enough?  Can I reinstall from the recovery disks without wiping everything aft of the configuratiion with which it was delivered?  I guess personal files will be OK (although I don't know this for sure), but I'm afraid I'll have to reinstall other applications, my family has developed over time and perhaps lose the media protected by DRM licenses.

  Someone has encountered anything like this or have any suggestions?

  Well, I finally stumbled into the solution.  It was caused by a conflict with another application.

  A few weeks before the card failure I had installed a program called video capture Replay Video Capture that I had bought a few months ago and never used.  However, at this time where everything including the TV tuner and Media Center worked well that's why I associate the problem with this software.  The problem comes after the system is rebooted the first time after installation.  In my case, it has not been rebooted until a few weeks later as part of the recovery of the fault of the graphics card.  Suddenly, the TV tuner did not work and I get the error messages mentioned in this title of the thread.

  I was at the end of my rope with this and was just to clean your system to do a reformat and reinstallation.  I uninstalled the Replay Videa Capture program to move it to another computer, and when you restart the computer I noticed that the error message disappeared.  Of course I went to the Media Center and could set up my TV tuner card and watch television.

  Looking for some info on this conflict, I found the following. (http://forum.applian.com//showthread.php?847-Conflicts-between-RVC-and-XP-Media-Center-OS&s=c0aec9897b51d550c47b919e73e59bfc)  It is difficult to say who is at fault in the present.  I'm sure that Microsoft accuses Applian for the encoder to mpeg (mcm2ve.ax) used in Replay Video Capture, while Applian says that the problem is a Windows process (ehrec.exe) that works all the time, hogging the tuner on the system device.  According to Applian other products similar to theirs have this conflict as well due to the process of Windows.

  Fortunately, there is a solution in this case.  Applian has released a new version of Replay Video Capture (version 4.2) that uses a different mpeg encoder and eliminates the problem.  Given the surprising lack of info about it on the Microsoft Web site, I wonder how many other people with this unresolved issue dealing with the same thing as me.  If you're like me and you don't usually need to reboot your PC for a few weeks at a time, you may never know to associate the problem with the application.  What a waste countless hours trying to diagnose, and most disconcerting, that's what I was about to go through a reformat and reinstall because of this.

  Thought I'd post here my problem resolution in the hope that it might help someone else.

• My win vista screensaver stopped working

  the screensaver included in vista worked properly for nearly 18 months, but has now ceased to launch. I have not installed anything new. I tried all the presets (i.e. 3D, Mystify, ribbons, etc.) and we tried different deadlines. I also tried to turn the password on the resume. any help would be appreciated.

  rgb1112,
  I recommend that you execute the following analysis:

  The System File Checker tool:

  To determine if the problem you are experiencing is caused by one or more system files that are used by Windows Vista, run the System File Checker tool. The System File Checker tool analyzes the system files and replaces incorrect versions of system files by using the correct versions.

  To run the System File Checker tool, follow these steps:

  Click Start-> click all programs-> on Accessories-> right click on command prompt, select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.
  At the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow
  When the analysis is complete, test to see if the problem you are experiencing is resolved.

  Let us know the results of your analysis. Rami

• my computer vista laptop stops working

  my computer vista laptop stops working. It starts ok and allowes me to choose my user account, then it loads to the top of my page with all the desktop icons and wellcome page, then it stops working. How to solve this problem? Thank you!

  LTCRay,

  If the problem persists in Mode without fail, it is very likely that the system has been infected.
  You can take a look at the post of PA Bear on the removal of the malware on this thread:
  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/msescan/thread/87058857-D181-4019-a723-efd9a49d9275
  Remember that you may need to removed the hard drive from the system to scan for infections.
  I hope this helps!

• "iPhone cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes" even though I have the latest version of iTunes?

  Yesterday, I bought an iPhone 6s and decided to restore it via iTunes. This then is the message "iPhone cannot be used because it requires a newer version of iTunes" came. So I installed the latest version, but the message still came, even if I had the latest version. What should I do?

  What operating system you are using on this computer?  If he is old enough like Windows XP or Vista, it is unable to get the latest versions of iTunes that are needed to work with the latest iPhone software.

• "IPad"iPad"are unusable because it requires a newer version of iTunes."

  Hello Apple communities! I hope that someone has already solved this one. I just bought an iPad Pro, new AT & t Got it home and plugged into my machine Windows 8.1 and received this message: "iPad"iPad"are unusable because it requires a newer version of iTunes." I'm on the latest version of iTunes (64) that I can find,12.1.3.6. and iOS is 9.3.2. I've seen a few people complain about what happens on a MAC or Windows Vista, but I have not seen someone with Windows 8.1 complain. Any ideas?

  I have uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and deleted the iPad, even though it was nine already. Don't know where to go from here.

  This is not the latest version of iTunes. The latest version is 12.4.1. What version of Windows are you using? If you use anything in Windows 7, it does not support the latest version of iTunes and the iPhone OS. You will need to update your computer.
