• Reinstallation of Windows Media Center XP error, the application failed to initialize properly (0xc000135

  I had to install a new hard drive after the death of my old. I use my Dell recovery/reinstallation disk. The first time I tried installing that it froze after the reboot. I then did a repair installation (twice) and each time got the following error:

  PxShare.exe Application error.

  The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000135).  Click OK to close the application.

  It appears at the end of the installation, but when my login screen is displayed, it shows only one account, administrator and request a password. I have not configured any accounts when I did the installation and you do not have a password. I tried to enter without password, using admin as password and check-in safe mode did not help - it still asked for a password.

  I don't know if the two problems are related or not.

  Thanks for any help!

• During the registrationof windows media Center recording error

  I just reinstalled Windows XP pro on my laptop using the support disc that comes with it.  Formatted the C drive and installed.  At half way through a message "errors of recording when recording in Windows Media Center." For more information, see - windows/medctroc.log.

  After accepting this installation on board after starting a box came up with "Starting windows first time.»  Please wait. "Nothing happened and I ended up re start it manually.

  Another view "configure."  Windows Update - dot.net .net service pack 1.1 - dot - restart

  Yet once I had to reboot manually.

  error came: sl1a.tmp common language runtime debugging services application has generated an exception that could not be treated have id = 0x4e0 (1248), thread id = 0x4fo (1264)

  When widows finally came message read - system will restart - not found ngen.exe entry - point and then - get asked the version of the runtime could not be found in the dynamic binding.

  I open IE and try to get updates and a message says "the requested lookup key was not found any active activation context.»

  I managed to install Opera, but that is not enough with Microsoft update.  Could someone please help?

  This looks like one of three things is unhealthy

  (1) your installation disc

  (2) your RAM

  (3) your hard drive,

  You must test each and then determine if its more cost effective to replace the unit or machine.

  (1) test the drive in another machine with IsoBuster - an analysis of surface and find if everything is OK if there are some errors present

  (2) tΘlΘcharger a RAM www.memtest.org - run at least 8 passes Tester and see if errors appear

  (3) download the utility from control of the manufacturer of the HD and create the bootable CD - do a quick scan and then the long scan of the hard drive and see what it reports.

• Windows Media Center Configuration error

  Hello. I found people with this problem all over the internet but I have yet to get a final solution.

  My PC is running Vista Home Premium with Media Center the greats. It is connected to my wireless network.

  My Xbox is connected to the network directly, as he's sitting right next to her.

  My PC detects the Xbox in 'Network' and it appears as an Extender when I run the Media Center application. My Xbox gives me the 8 digit code and I put it. I said I want to share media, and it then goes to the configuration bit extender. Then it says Configuration error.

  I have enabled Media Player via my firewall, open all the necessary local ports and don't have any other firewalls up. I don't know what is happening.

  I'd like to get this up and running, so any help is welcome.

  EDIT: Just realized this placed entirely in the wrong place. Please move it, mod?

• Windows Media Center gives error wmp.dll

  Original title: Windows Media Center - Vista - does not - please help!

  Hello.   We had a problem with Windows media center after the SP2 update.   We tried a few workaround solutions, and now we get the following error: "C:/windows/system32/wmp.dll is not designed to run on Windows or it contains an error.  Try to install the program by using the original installation media or contact system support".  I was unable to find a download for Windows media center in Vista.  Can you help me?

  Hi EricLarson_CL,

  
  Method 1: Perform the analysis of System File Checker (SFC) that might help you resolve the issue.
  
  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:
  1. Click Start and type cmd in the box start the search.
  2. right click on cmd in the list programs and then click Run as administrator.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue
  3. at the command prompt, the following line, and then press ENTER:
  sfc/scannow
  
  Follow the instructions in the link below for more information on scan SFC.
  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936212/
  
  Method 2: You can turn off & on Windows Media Center in Windows Feature & check if the problem persists.
  Turn on or off Windows features
  
  Method 3: Try to rebuild the Media Center data store and check if it helps:
  (a) exit any running instance of Windows Media Center.
  (b) delete the mediaCenterDataStore.db file. By default, this file is located in the following location:
  %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB
  To remove the file, follow these steps:
  (a) click Start and then click on run
  (b) in the Open box, type run and then click OK
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.
  (c) in the Open box, type %systemdrive%\programdata\microsoft\ehome and then click OK.
  (d) in the details pane, right-click right mediacenterdatastore.db and then click on remove.
  (e) click Yes to confirm that you want to move the Mediacenterdatastore.db file to the trash.
  Start Windows Media Center
  
  Note: You may not be able to download Windows Media Center for vista, but it is integrated with the operating system.
  Hope this information is useful.

• Windows Media Center learned remote control cable, cannot recognize the Windows Media Center remote control

  Running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I rent a cable box so I can get some programs at the 3-digit level.  When I've set up my Windows Media Center (WMC), WMC learn successfully the cable box remote 1 - channel upward.  My problem is the next step and change the channel using the Windows Media Center remote control or keyboard.  My keyboard or the WMC remote will change the channel.

  I got Windows Media Center to re - learn the cable box remote control twice, which is always successful, but again once, when the time comes to use the Windows Media Center remote control or my keyboard to change the channel, the channel does not change.

  Could someone please help me with this?  Thank you in advance.

  Hey kansascitykid,

  If you receive your TV signal through a set-top box and Media Center is unable to change the channel, or it changes channels incorrectly, check the following:

  ·        The infrared diffuser is connected to your remote control receiver. If the infrared diffuser is not connected, Media Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

  ·        The infrared diffuser is well positioned at the front of the set - top box. If you are having trouble placing the IR blaster on the set - top box correctly, try to use a flashlight to locate the signal on the set - top box receiver.

  ·        IR control codes are configured correctly. If constantly changing channels, control IR codes may not have been configured correctly during the installation of TV signal. To reconfigure your TV signal, on the Windows Media Center start screen, highlight toTasks, clickSettings, click on TV, then clickSet up the TV Signal.

  • Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

• Video Windows Media Center HDMI error problem

  I noticed this problem scattered on these forums, and it took me some time to find the solution on other forums, but thought I'd post it here. For people using some graphics cards ATI HDMI with windows 7 MCE, trying to play Dolby Digital sources causes the MCE crashing. The error will say something in terms of "video error... in windows media center must be restarted." This happens about 10 seconds after the video with audio playback SD. I tried to play with all the different types of codecs ffdshow and AC3Filters etc.

  The solution is in fact a major bug in windows 7. To work around this problem MCE7 and windows sound properties cannot assign 5.1 speakers. You define the sound properties in 7 Stereo 2.0 and keep the MCE to 5.1 for dolby Digital encoded files without MCE game crashing. I hope that MS will make a fix for this because it is a serious problem, and the solution is not easy to find.

  I have a ZOTAC ZBOX ND02, dual ATI 750U Tuners and Windows 7.  Reloaded the o/s once to resolve quickly the it and returned.  Spends hours on the subject.  Switching to 2 speakers in the MCE Assistant did the trick.  Thanks for the tip.  Phew!
