Windows 8 Pro with Windows Media Center

• Can I use the Windows Media Center already purchased with newly installed Win 8 Pro?

  Hello, community.  I've never really had to ask any questions or messages on the community forums, but simply, I can't find the answer to this,

  So Microsoft was offerring winder 8 Pro at prices extremely low at launch.  Another bonus is that you could sign up for a free installation of Windows Media Center.  I have a TB tuner card in one of my places with two ports so I can watch TV or it is apparent from the file on my PC as a DVR and it worked perfectly.   However, recently, my c:\ died and I had to buy a new one and I got a new copy of Windows 8 Pro.  I was hoping that my account name Microsoft would allow me to re - download Media Center but it looks like I'll have to buy it now.

  Is it the way it is or am I missing something that could restore my MWC installation?

  Thanks in advance for any answers.

  Hello

  How did you install operating system Windows 8, which was previously an upgrade installation or custom?

  If you have Windows Media Center free of charge then you would have received a product key for the same thing, I recommend you to use the same product key to activate or add Windows Media center to a new installation of Windows 8 PRO.

  See the following Microsoft article.

  Add features to Windows

• Netflix search works is not in error of Windows Media Center (windows 8 pro) "error message"No internet connection"

  Separated from this thread.

  The installation is successful, in my case; However, when I try to use the function search I get an error message 'No internet connection' and close the search window.

  As this solution is supposed to be a local, I am at a loss as to what is happening. Streaming movies works btw, so I don't have an Internet connection available and functional.

  Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

  Edit: I have Media Center running on Windows 8 Pro.

  Hi Florian.

  I appreciate if you could help us with more information.

  1. You can use search Netflix when you connect using a web browser?

  2. Is the Windows Media Center works correctly and can access the Internet other than with Netflix?

  If the problem is with Netflix Media Center User Interface, it is supported by Netflix.
  Go to http://www.netflix.com/help and post your question.

• Windows 8 Pro with the media library is enabled, and the watermark is still visible

  Windows 8 Pro with the media library is enabled, and the watermark is still visible

  Hi all

  I have recently opted for the offer to upgrade to Windows Media Center from Microsoft and everything is is well spent, I had my product key, installed library and all was good with all countries, UNTIL I noticed that the watermark from Windows 8 is now visible saying '\n Mode Test Windows 8 Build 9200 of Pro with Media Center \n ".

  Once again that Windows is activated like her, and I quote "Windows is activated".

  Help please

  Aiden

  Open the command prompt (Admin) and then enter:

  bcdedit/set testsigning

  Now restart your computer and the watermark will disappear.

  The test mode is for test drivers. You have probably run Windows Experience Index.

• Problem installing Windows XP Pro/Windows Media Center Edition

  A few years ago, I built a system which consists of MS Windows Media Center Edition.  Recently, the hard drive failed.  I replaced the drive with a 1 TB Seagate Barracuda SATA drive.  Strangely, I can't reinstall MS Windows Media Center.  To clarify... with MS Windows Media Center cd in the drive, the installation went well.  The hard drive has been formatted and that the CD-ROM files have been hard disk messages were present.  The next step was a reboot by MS Windows cd.  This is where the installation fails. After the reboot, the Windows XP splash screen came as if the program Windows opened on your desktop.  At halfway through the splash screen, the system restarts.  Reboot forever more.  I don't know what is happening. Anyone?

  Test your player - create a Bootable CD:
  Ranging from 5 to 25% (depending on the make and model) new hard disks are defective.

  If you have a new hard drive Seagate the very next thing would be to download Seagate Seatools

  And im having trouble with the tuner.
  Tuner not found
  the tuner is defective or not installed.

  someone help?

  Hello hillsiderWH,

  Seems that your windows installation is missing most important files, I suggest you boot to the top with your windows media center installation CD and run repair on the windows installation. This will replace any missing files and I hope that your media center up and running. If this isn't the case, it could be a problem in the registry.

  I had a big problem with my computer. It came with windows xp professional installed and it has windows media center. I wanted to restore my computer to its original state.

AM I also supposed to have a disk of windows xp professional too, cause I don't have. Need help restoring my computer. Right now I can't really do anything with it. (Use another computer to write it).

  Install Service Pack 3.

• No sound with Windows Media Center TV

  There is no sound when watching live TV or when I look at TV shows recorded on Windows XP Media Center TV. I tried the volume via the remote control, monitor & HD Realtek audio Manager control, but no luck. The speakers (which are incorporated in the monitor) are both works well and work in other areas, IE: DVD, Internet and iTunes ect. It's only when I watch live or recorded TV programs. my PC is connected with RF cable (DOM) any advice would be appreciated gratefully. Thanks in advance.

  If the above does not help: -.

  Uninstall and reinstall your tv tuner card driver, sound card driver and the decoder. Update all the drivers on the manufacturers Web sites.

• Problems with Windows Media Center cumulative update 2

  Hello

  I tried to set up my xbox360 to work with windows media center.  Whenever I try to install the Update Rollup 2, he created a restore point and as soon as he arrives to install the fix, says installation failed and my computer must be restarted or something to that effect.  I did some research and found the threads on the .NET framework 1.1 Hotfix and checked for her and she does not appear in my programs add/delete, menu, so I don't think that may be worth.    It drives me crazy, any help would be appreciated seriously.

  Yes - you will need to reinstall Windows to fix.  And, Yes, you will need to backup your data first and reinstall all your programs later.

  I'll post instructions later tonight (they are on a machine at home).  In the meantime, now is a good time to start copying all your data to elsewhere.

  Kind regards
  Chris.
