  • Why does my windows Movie Maker stop burn to my dvd to 60percent without message

    Burning my family video with windows movie maker, from the (encoded) copy to dvd disc, and it stops at 60% completion with no error message.  How can I solve this problem.

    Just a few ideas...

    Large, complex projects are prone to problems.
    If you create several small projects and publish (Save)
    each format .wmv or .avi movie to a folder on
    your hard drive, you can then import the clips collected
    DVD Maker and each one becomes a scene
    (Chapter)... you can have up to 18 scenes.

    ===

    Your source files might have compatibility issues...

    Several formats are apparently compatible with
    Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

    Photos - bmp
    Video - wmv or dv - avi
    Audio - wav, wma, wmv

    ===

    It may be interesting to try to open Movie Maker and go to...
    Tools / Options / Compatibility tab and disable all the
    filters / OK.

    ===

    Publication (save) the project to the DV - AVI or WMV
    film in Movie Maker format and then import the
    movie DVD Maker file may be worth a try.

  • Update Windows Defender KB915597 automatic update and other sources.

    It seems that, after each automatic update of Windows Defender on my computer at home another updated appears another update showing about 3 days more later from "another source."  It should be?  The two definition links are link ID = 52661.  All definitions are different and my computer has been updated July 28,2010-July 30, 2010.  It has been also updated for the same KB915597 on May 27, 2010 and may 31, 2010.  I do not understand why the KB is downloaded several times automatically and also "other source".

    TIP: Give your full version of Windows (for example, WinXP SP3;) Windows XP 64 - bit SP2; Vista SP1; Vista 64 - bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64 bit) when you post in a forum or a newsgroup.

    Left to itself, Windows Defender will be auto-updated itself twice a week (usually the Monday/Tuesday and Friday/Saturday). These updates are updates "Other Source" you will find listed in the update history.

    With Microsoft Update [1] as source of update by default, you will be offered that Defender updates when you run a manual check for updates. Here are the optional updates: If you choose to not install one, Defender will always auto-updated itself by what precedes.

    ====================================
    [1] "what are the differences between Windows updates and automatic updates from Microsoft Updates?

    "While Windows Update provides updates specifically for Windows, Microsoft Update expands the service to download and install updates for other software from Microsoft, such as Microsoft Office and Windows Live and Silverlight [and Microsoft Security Essentials]. Update automatic is a feature that allows you to configure your PC to automatically download and install updates using each service, making it easy and convenient for you to keep your current Windows PC. "[Source: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/downloads/windowsupdate/FAQ.mspx]

  • Why does VSSVC.exe run every day?

    Out & about once every few days VSSVC.exe & TrustedInstaller.exe will start running. It usually takes only 30-50% of my CPU unless I'm doing something else at the same time. As a result, I find generally that, under 'System Restore', a new restore point has been created. I also found what is VSSVC.exe & that this probably meant that my computer had a 'system' update & so was do a restore point for that. I'm assuming that "System updates" are different from "Windows Updates" since I was those value only notify & never automatically download or install. In addition, I did have a "Windows Update" in a few days which also proves that it is something different. A few minutes ago VSSVC.exe started running again with TrustedInstaller.exe & took a few minutes to finish as usual. However, while they inspected "System Restore" I found that the last created restore point was about 3 days ago, even though these two process turned a few minutes ago. So now, I have a few questions I need to answer.

    1: What are the "system updates"?

    2: If in fact they are the same that "Windows Updates" that are normally downloaded & installed, why am I not notified of them in advance?

    3: can I plan "system updates"?

    4: can I plan when the System Restore Points that are created from VSSVC.exe?

    5: If all my current assumptions are bad, what in fact is happening really?

    On a final note, I should mention that I have indeed update my Microsoft Security Essentials every day. Although VSSVC.exe is not following this model is why this whole situation left me speechless. I perform analyses of viruses once a week who are always clean, apart from the question I mentioned that my computer runs great.

    As mentioned it is part of the snapshot service that is used by restoring the system as well as protection of system files and the "previous file" feature.

    Restore points are created automatically when changes to the system.

  • Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Now, it's a boring, which several other users have reported under different threads. Because I couldn't find a post with quite similar symptoms, I made my own topic.

    I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 x on an old one (Intel Quad-Core, 4 GB RAM, 524 GB HDD - in case, for reasons unknown to me, someone needs to know it...) , DellXPS system. Not more than a few weeks ago my home button keyboard unresponsive on this system.

    I did a lot of troubleshooting, but these measures have been carried out:
    * Tested keyboard on the other system, touch ESC WORKS on the other system
    * Reinstalled keyboard and USB drivers on the XPS system, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Connected to a never-before-used USB keyboard, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Opened and cleaned the keyboard, tested, Escape key WORKS, Don't DO NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Tested in various applications: Desktop (Esc will close the start menu), Photoshop, Vegas, Notepad, games full screen OpenGL,Escape key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Google for possible solutions, none found...

    Note: Highlights show where the ESC key does not work. I am troubled by the XPS system.

    In case you missed it my list of troubleshooting steps, the ESC key works on another computer of Windows 7 system.

    I have to still garble my self through the registry in the hope that someone might have an idea of the steps to follow before I lose a day to see the things that I honestly know squat. Please help if you can; What could be the issue/common application that separates this key in the Windows world and how could I solve this problem?

    Thank you in advance!

    For reference,.
    No major changes have been made since the keyboard unresponsive with the exception of:
    Updates to FireFox (including modules Ad-Block Plus, NoScript, which have also been updated).
    Windows Update
    A 10.x MB World of Warcraft patch/update on a keyboard AFTER week unresponsive

    Already installed the patches StarCraft II and World of Warcraft, which none touched my keyboard to my knowledge. I finished almost all of StarCraft II and had no problems...

    I know it's a bit old, but I was living the question myself.  Thought I had found the problem and it was fixed but then it happened again.  Came to find out (by closing a program and test the ESC key) it's because Photoshop.

    With the help of Photoshop, which could match the case you mention.  Not only that but I did a search ('ESC' does not not Photoshop) and stumbled on some answers/solutions workaround for it.  One is to use SHIFT + ESC ESC does not work.

    Hope this helps someone.  I fell it using my original research ("Windows 7" BSE "ESC" keyboard does not) and know that others are likely to see.  If you have not already learn the cause, in the year + since your original message, then voila.

  • Why does windows partition hard disk of 500 GB so that 60 GB fills the drive c, then d ' drive is empty (295 GB free)?

    Original title: hard drive partition

    Why does windows partition hard disk of 500 GB so that 60 GB fills the drive c, then d ' drive is empty (295 GB free)?

    It depends entirely on the Installer Windows at your partition layout described no.1 is not standard.

    By default on a totally blank disk Windows 7 installation will create two partitions. A system reservedMB 100 partition which will not have any drive letter and is not normally visible on computer. The rest of the disk will be the operating system.

    Your drive C is 60GB because someone chose her for this size. It seems that if the computer has been upgraded, 60 GB would have been appropriate for Windows XP.
