In addition, the object on the secondary screen, whether full-screen mode or not, will disappear for a second and reveal the desktop background whenever I have use Aero Peek to select items in the taskbar on the main screen. How would prevent that from happening as well?

• Not found DVD Maker "DVD burner" message when DVD writer works well with other programs

  Hello

  I just created a DVD with AVS Video Converter and burned a DVD with no problems and created later a film with Windown Movie Maker, which worked well, it has exported to Windows DVD Maker, again not a problem, but when I click on burn, I get a not found message "DVD burner". How can I fix, I know the burner works very well because it works with other programs... And Windows DVD Maker was working fine until recently and outside a updated Windows Vista, I did not further updated or changes to the computer.

  Thanks for your help!

  Hi Froggie_UK,

  Since this problem you encounter began after that windows update, you can use the System Restore tool to return your computer to an earlier point in time. The tool using System Restore may not necessarily help you determine the problem. When you use system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, the programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

  Before you start Please back up your data

  To restore the operating system to an earlier point in time, follow these steps:

  ·         Click Start, type System Restore in the search box, and then click System Restore in the list programs. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

  ·         In the System Restore dialog box, click choose a different restore point, and then click on Next.

  ·         In the list of restore points, click a restore point created before you started having the problem, and then click Next.

  ·         Click Finish.

  ·         The computer restarts and system files and settings are back to the State they were in when the restore point was created.

  If it is an update, the best way to solve this problem is to apply only updates one at a time to determine which updates is causing this problem.

  Click on start-> all programs-> Windows Update, click on change settings in the left menu. Select download updates but let me choose whether to install them, click OK. When you are alerted to install a new update, in this window, click updates see, uncheck all updates and select one at a time, install it, restart your computer, test and update. Once you find the update either continue to ignore it, or look for it at http://support.microsoft.com/.

  We hope this resolves the issue and look forward to hearing back from you on your results.

• How to use Windows media player with the windows Task Scheduler (7)?

  Original title: why it is so difficult... question of windows media player 12

  You want to use Windows media player with windows (7) Task Scheduler.   We have a pc, everything that appears on the screen is also pumped to our community cable channel, normally a slideshow in loop is the show, however, sometimes via a scheduler interrupt the slideshow to play a video (say a video of our last Board of Directors meeting) and to make videos, ideally the slideshow returns.

  Using Microsoft software, in this case, Windows Media Player v12.0.7601.18150, Task Scheduler 1.0, two things must happen.

  1 Task Scheduler launch a video in fullscreen / top of window.

  2. when the video is finished, wmp is closed.

  Well, 1 works fine.  The Task Manager launching wmp in full screen.  And a framework of wmp switches to allow a session of wmp be on top.

  However, a short time after launch wmp cut the screen down to a smaller version.

  And 2. closure of WMP fails to occur.  He remains on the screen waiting for human input.

  Any input appreciated.

  Charlie

  For "cuts WMP down to a smaller version", right click on the video game (during playback) and deselect ' auto Player size to contain video.

  For number 2, define your point of Task Scheduler task for the "end of task after X minutes" and therefore the value of X.  Then it will kill the instance of running Media Player after a large number of minutes.  So, it will absolutely immediately when the video is done playing, but it will be within 60 seconds and will be at least to remove WMP and let your slideshow be visible again.

• Quality of its poor window media player with vista and windows 7

  Since I bought my first Vista PC three years ago I never liked playing my music with Windows media player. This is because the sound quality is irritating. For some reason, the volume of any song keeps rising and falling when he plays with the media player but the same player sound perfectly with any other player. Note, in this case with windows Vista and when I upgraded to Windows 7 I have always noticed the same problem. Many of my friends who use Windows vista or windows 7 also complained about this problem.
  Does anyone have a solution to this? Because I can't play my songs with windows media player on my pc windows 7 and I had to keep my old windows xp just to play my songs.

  Hello

  It could be mainly mediocre speakers. Check you drivers.

  Control Panel - device - SOUNDS Manager - look for HD Audio Mine said RealTek High Definition Audio

  Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
  Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
  CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

  1. go to the system manufacturer's website and search for the driver the newest download - SAVE - will click with the button straight on and RUN AS ADMIN
  (This is your rescue.) REBOOT after each installation of driver.

  NOTE: Driver Sound often rollback so check the version after installation and reboot to see if the version you
  installed is there, if not repeat - restart until it is. It may take several tries depending on the recommitments how he
  the fact.

  Then do the same for the site of the manufacturer of the device.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Installation window Media Center with Avermedia A850 DMB-TH/DVB-T

  Hi all

  I am located in Australia and I have a USB TV tuner which can be used for DVB - T or DMB - TH digital system. I tested it on the player of AverMedia TV tuner, which worked well and I can't all channels using an antenna from the wall outlet. However, it doesn't seem to work when I went to the Media Center window with the same exact configuration (taking wall antenna).

  I tried to use it on Windows Vista and 7, which gave me very different results.

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

  Vista: When I click on "Setup TV signal" it recognizes the signal as "Antenna", but he was not able to scan any guide or service.

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

  7: Interestingly, it recognizes the USB TV Tuner, but to halfway through the installer it says 'You are about to leave the media center window to start the installation process for Tuner AVerMedia digital (DMB - TH)' and the rest of the facility would be in Chinese, where he asks me which City Chinese I am etc. and cause recognized as a bad country and DMB - TH no channels are available.

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

  Could I please get a setting for help to the top of the window Media Center?

  Initially, I thought it was a problem with the driver, but it seems not to be because she works for the Avermedia program.

  Thanks for your help!

  Hello

  Thank you for you answer.

  I have already contacted Avermedia and they got back to me with a solution. However, they notified the problem with the interface in Chinese was the software design of the library window.

  Also, I think that DMB - TH is just how Windows Media Center recognized as, because it is a hybrid TV tuner so when I click on the driver he recognizes as DMB-TH/DVB-T so its fine.

  In any case, he now works correctly. It's a hybrid tuner, they asked me to install a program that allows me to switch between DVB - T and DMB - TH. So far it works well :)

  Thanks for your help.
