• Windows media player stops responding when you click on the link on the Web site

  Windows media player

  Every time I press a link on a site that allows a person to watch a video. Windows media player does not respond, what we get is a pink screen with the small blue circle, whizzing round a round a round. It does not even when we try to click on the wide screen...  Help please, very frustrated!

  So using your media guide? or you are using a browser that has a particular video game that uses the Media Player plugin?  You may need a codec pack.

  If you use media guide try watch it in your browser. Then tell me if this works.  Also you may not know that this media player will wait until the entire video is buffered before playing.

• Windows 7 error: "Windows Explorer has stopped working" when you try to connect to network shares.

  I recently installed Windows 7 Ultimate on my laptop - clean, no upgrade. It's in the CARDS and not a copy of the beta version. When I try to connect to a network share, I get an error. "Windows Explorer has stopped working". If I go to start > run and type in \\servername\users, I'm prompted credentials. I enter domainname\administrator, then the password, as soon as I get an error message indicating that "Windows Explorer has stopped working" then by «Windows Explorer restarts...» "and then refreshes the screen. If I open computer > network > Servername, I invite myself again for credentials, but get the same message. The name of username/password combo does not seem to make a difference.

  An additional singularity, I went to control panel > "Backup of your computer", and when I was invited to a network location back up my system, I gave him the same set of location and network credential and the system have been successfully saved to the network drive.

  Press Win Logo key + R, type: fsmgmt.msc

  You see your own actions?

  If so, open the credentials manager in Control Panel and look for an entry like your network logon. Delete who can clear up.

• Windows Movie Maker 6.0 Vista immediately stops working when you try to open.

  Hello!

  I've been all around the internet trying to solve this problem, but nothing has worked so far.  When I try to start Windows Movie Maker 6.0 for Vista, (in general), it stops working at their opening saying the following:

  "Windows Movie Maker has stopped working".

  There has been a few times when it actually opens and I can work on my videos, however, it's very, very, rare and seems to happen randomly.

  I tried to open in safe mode, but it still fails to open.  I also tried to open .avi short and simple with WMM 6.0 files to see if it will be open, but that, generally, does not either.

  Once, I was able to open random and I have disabled all the filters on the Compatibility tab and temporarily activated only video filters that I needed.  That seemed to fix the problem for several days, and I could open Movie Maker 6.0 several times.  Sometimes it would freeze everything and save, or stop working when importing video files, but at least it would be open.  I was able to record some videos.  After a few days, my computer day and WMM 6.0 is more open more.  I don't know if yes or no update is the reason why Movie Maker 6.0 started crashing again, but it was the only thing that has changed on my computer while I could uncheck the Compatibility tab filters and open WMM 6.0. [Could uncheck all filters to be part of the problem?]

  I usually works with .mov files, and I read on how this type of file sometimes causes problems with Windows Movie Maker.  However, the problem normally occurs when I try to open the program (and if WMM opens, I can very well change .mov files).  I do not think that the file type is causing the crash, but I guess that's always a possibility...

  I also read that sometimes Windows Movie Maker 6.0 for vista doesn't work with all computers that have vista installed, and Windows Movie Maker 2.6 must be used to place.  Windows Movie Maker 2.6 is working fine on my computer, but it cannot change the .mov files, or record in HD.  I had horribly degrading the quality of the video with the conversions of files to use WMM 2.6.  Windows Movie Maker 6.0 is much better, on the rare occasions that it works.  Do you think I should use Windows Movie Maker 2.6 now?

  Here are two problem reports that appear more often when you try to open Windows Movie maker 6.0.  The window of support almost always said I need to update my computer again (even if there is no new update), or that it is a problem of security Data Execution Prevention.  Windows Movie Maker cannot be added to the list of exceptions to Data Execution Prevention, or I can check to see if the filters from the Compatibility tab are always disabled in the program, I don't know how to solve this problem...

  The "BEX" error happens much more frequently than the "APPCRASH" error  In addition, I have Windows Vista home premium installed and a 32-bit operating system.  I don't know how to read the problem reports, or if it's all the information you need.  I'm not very good with computers at all the... Any help and ideas would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you!

  Very often, but not always, Code exception: c0000005 is a permissions access error, so have you tried right-clicking on the MM shortcut or .exe and selecting the option "Run As Administrator"?  Other times a reinstallation of the program crash can fix.  As you can not do with Movie Maker the next best option is to try the System File Checker.

  Michael

  Hi Michaelgdr,

  1. the problem occurs with all videos?

  I suggest you to reduce hardware acceleration for windows media and (if supported) graphics card player

  Try to reduce (or turn off) video hardware acceleration by doing the following

  a. open Screen Resolution by clicking the Start button, click Control Panel, and then, under appearance and personalization, clicking
  Setting screen resolution.

  b. click Advanced settings, click the Troubleshooting tab and then click change settings.

• Windows Media Player - error C00D1198 when you listen to files online

  C00D1198

  I had the same problem over and over again with my Windows Media Player. He is not consistent, but it happens several times a day. When you try to listen to music on the net, I am having problems and receive an error code that reads C00D1198. I don't know what it means, and I would like to know how to avoid ever see that again. In addition, there were moments where I got Windows Media Player successfully, but after a while, the music would stop playing on its own.

  Hi Dazzlicious,

  Windows Media Player cannot connect to the server that hosts the content you want to listen to. You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

  1. The name of the server that hosts the content is not valid. If you typed an address Uniform Resource Locator (URL) in the Open URL dialog box, verify that the file name is spelled correctly and that the path to the file is correct, and then try again. If you clicked a link on a Web page, the link isn't valid.
  2. The server is not available (for example, the server is busy or not online). Try again later.
  3. For Windows Media Player proxy server settings are not configured correctly. Verify that your proxy server settings are correct.

  Follow the steps in the article below to check your proxy server settings

  Hi dalintn,

  1. What is the file format of the document?

  3. did you of recent changes on the computer?

  Check if the similar problem persists when you access the document from any other location on the computer.

  Method 1

  This error message can occur if there is some system files corrupted on your computer. I suggest that you run a SFC scan, which would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

  The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.
