• WMP-11 / WinXP Media Sharing error - HELP!

  Two PC, both with WinXP SP3 Home on them.  A desk, a pro audio (& much faster).  But the sharing of multimedia files from WMP - 11 does NOT work on the faster Pro-Audio PC; It hangs for about 45 seconds when the box is checked, then recovers, but shows NO results to select from.  It will do this several times.  There is also a NEW unit of Panasonic Blu - ray wireless streaming and a pioneer of the NEW network 7.1 surround receiver on the network.  The 'desktop' PC sees the BD & receiver & allows them to be selected in the sharing of multimedia files.  The BD player sees the network and can ONLY play files (jpg & mp3 only, dammit) to the Office PC, but will NOT be connected to or see the Pro-audio PC either.  The Pioneer receiver does NOT show it sees PC EITHER although it should and still iTunes on the PC Pro-Audio sees the receiver AND my sound card (MOTU Traveler Mk3) pro and will play to / thru either (yay iTunes, WMP-11 Boo)!

  OK, Yes, the system is a bit complex, but quite impressive with a projected screen of 92 "w X 52" h. also. "  I tried following instructions to automate & and/or start Win connected services / nobody to charge on wmpnetwk.exe (of WMP Network Media Sharing (EXE), but nothing.  I even completely removed & reinstalled all MS .net Framework (1.1, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0), but am always errors using MS-implementation to date for new installations.  I'm really starting to think this life Techno is complete rubbish, and I need to ' drop the electronic device and just leave quickly. "  Too bad I'm thousands of $$ in it, and have a lot of hours-life lost to it already.  No matter what other geniuses out there who can tell me how to solve this mess?

  Well to set up WMP sharing open WMP, tools, options, Library tab, tap on the

  the button "configure sharing" & edit. Also, look in the devices tab, L.click on the

  material, press the tab properties & edit...

  WMP is a utility called "WMDiag.

  Download this from microsoft, it tests WMP

  In addition, removing & reinstalling the software such as .NET can / will cause major BONE

  problems...

  WMDiag creates several large reports, which none did tell ME what it is.  I'm not a programmer.  You don't mention where to send these reports to be decifered for help.  Difficulty of MS it don't find problems or correct them, and in the last two tests, he reported that he "encountered an error & could not continue", sending me to a non-specific solve this site (I've had NO idea where to go from there).  A large PART of my experience of MS's tail-chasing and dead ends.  The team of Bill Gates should start again with a SIMPLE operating system that will work with all existing software (too simplified, but a good idea).

  In the end, I spent 4 days of eight hours, trying to solve these problems: not .net Framework package would update via MS up-to-date and sharing the media would HANG about 25 seconds when trying to put on the March (then would produce NO result).  Most of this time was looking, trying some different procedures suggested on the ballots of Ms.  It was excrutiating and a gigantic waste of time.  It could have been resolved in an hour, was easy to find... good info but it really wasn't.  Too many paths, & many people having the same problem.

  Finally, with the help of .net cleanup tool and other processes long regsvr32.exe command line, I was able to fix the Windows Update system files, reinstall all .net Framework 1.1 to 4.0 and incredibly stupid boring packages, finally got each update offered by MSUpdate installed.  Curiously and fortunately, which also fixed the problem of sharing of media files.  WMP - 11 now allows sharing and recognizes the wireless Panasonic BD-streaming player AND pioneer in network receiver/amp.

  Since MS Answers seems exclusively designed for people with problems MUCH more simple (like how to follow instructions), where should we do when they have REAL problems in the system that NEED to be repaired as soon as POSSIBLE so normal work can continue?  I've always been very frustrated with the interface 'Help & Support' offered in the start - menu, it has generally been quite worthless (Googling is preferable).  This .net of all penalty framework update that many know should have been handled by MS much more quickly & efficiently.

  There are many more, but I'll leave it at that since I have fixed my problem. -DMS

• Why my WinXP Media Center will not create a restore point?

  For some reason, I just tried to create a Restore Point manually. I see that none have been created and stored in the past. I also see that it is turned on, because it is unchecked to enable the system restore on the system restore settings. So why, when I check create A Restore Point and click Next and write a description and click on create, make a box that says that system restore is not able to create a restore point? He also says if he please restart the computer and restart System Restore.

  I tried and it does not at all. Just the same thing happen again.

  Fixed! I decided to turn the system restore settings on the Restore page of the system (which will scan all the nonexistent restore points!) and then turn it back on. Now, he lets me create a Restore Point. I called him restore test, and now I see that on the list of the points of restoration as the only restore point. This list was empty before and no days were clouded on the calendar on this page.

• HPa1519h Pavilion Media Center does not play audio

  I bought a HP Pavilion of a1518h with a sweet WinXP Media Center Edition 2005 from someone, and it does not play the audio files. I noticed, the called program manager of sound effects is not found, and also, I do not see any what PCI sound card to come with him despite all the buttons mute and volume on his keyboard. If I chose the control panel / sounds and Audio devices, volume is just not said 'No audio device' now. Hmmm.

  I buy a sound card M-Audio 2496 since to use its MIDI in / out, but audio in/out-wise, I still prefer to use the resources of the HP (if I can get them work), so that I can plug both cables in the HP front and rear outputs stereo, and, more important still, the computer reacts to the volume buttons and mute the keyboard. (2496 card does not work). Could someone give advice what Miss me exactly and how do I proceedto back the sound capabilities of the HP?

  I tried to use HP application recovery to see if I can restore sound effect Manager, but he has not been listed as a recoverable application / choice of the driver. I tried to restore XP to an earlier date (maybe?), but the system restore reported that is not possible. I do not have a Windows HP disk, but XP is installed in a 10 gig recovery partition. I tried to locate a Setup program the sound effect Manager on this partition and my recovery of HP DVD system without success. Where should I go from here?

• Age of Empire 1 and 2 do not work on P100-350

  I can't run Age Of Empire I or II on a P100-350 under Win XP.
  AOE I works only at 640 x 480.
  AOE II does not at all. I get a message about directX has not loaded.

  Someone has already experienced this problem?

  I have exactly the same problem (on a Satellite P100-6198) with the same games under WinXP Media Center: it is said that DirectDraw is not taken in charge while DirectDraw tests are quite normal... There is obviously a problem. Someone please unlock us because my father-in-law bought a Toshiba too under my guidance and his favorite Albums game is Age of Empires 2, he is VERY FRUSTRATED not being able to play!

• How to access the recovery partition?

  My computer is SR1950nNX. The OS was Winxp media center. The aircraft crashed and since I don't use Media Center that much I reinstalled Windows XP pro, formatting the drive on the way. The recovery partition is still available, but I can't access it since I hit F10 when booting takes nowhere. I must have wiped out the Recovery Manager. I tried to download a recovery on HP site without success Manager. Can someone help me to reinstall the original system of the recovery partition?

  Thanks for the info. I think now I'll try to make a recovery disk using a linux boot disk as Hiren or Knoppix or Ubuntu even running from a live capture recording programs in the recovery partition and see if there isn't a way I can get to start. If the I386 file has a file winnt32.exe, which starts a new installation, I'm home free. For completeness of information, I will post what happens.

• Virus impossible.

  Presario SR2032X with XP SR2 when installed.

  A bad virus / redirect issues.  I tried recovery with the backup data. Did not work.

  Now, even with the format and the recovery, redirection is always a problem. Cannot get rid of the problem. Tried several times, ranging from what is done after restoration. Windows update, run malwarebytes, use chrome instead of IE, etc, etc...

  Tried to remove the battery and the memory before retrieving. System seems OK after recovering, but slowly, redirection problem worsens.

  I tried Google Chrome. Seems problem is lurking in the recovery partition. I have no DVD system and can only flow of partition.

  So suggestions will be welcome and also, can I use XP from another system to do a fresh install and use numbers fresh on the case to reinstall XP. I could track down all the drivers I needes separately and install it if necessary.

  ?? Thank you.

  According to this page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c00758095

• Infinite loops AUTOCHK and CHKDSK

  Question: How do I fix the curls AUTOCHK and CHKDSK when everything has failed?

  Summary: a new HARD drive, with a cloned image of WinXP infected with the malware that has been cleaned thoroughly, continues to show c: System file Dirty bit is set.  A 5-step forced CHKDSK /f or CHKDSK /r does not resolve the problem.  System seems to be 100% clean and works great except for the 'stuck' Dirty bit on C:.  Dirty bit can be effectively ignored by using CHKNTFS /x c: but Scandisk and Defrag cannot be run - probably other problems also.  Yet to try to solve this problem without wiping and starting over.

  HP Pavilion zd8000 w / WinXP Media Center 2005.  Wouldn't boot - ran an endless cycle of 3 floors AUTOCHKs and reboots.  If AUTOCHK was cancelled, WinXP would charge sometimes, but very slowly... HARD drive certainly wasn't.  Originally mounted 4200 RPM HARD drive on another box, and then managed to copy data from it.  The host received warnings which disc can have errors. Ghost to clone a new 5400 RPM HARD drive.

  Installed new HARD drive in the laptop computer and used MBAM, HitMan, RKill and ComboFix to fix many and varied, the viruses and Trojans (but not sure exactly what horses Trojan or virus, sorry).  Possible one of these viruses caused BSOD 0X0000007b error when you try to start in Safe Mode; This has been resolved during the elimination of viruses and removing Windows updates specific here:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-windows_update/blue-screen-error-0x0000007B-in-Windows-XP-after/73cea559-ebbd-4274-96bc-e292b69f2fd1

  and here:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_xp-system/Windows-XP-SP3-boot-to-safe-mode-Stop-0x0000007B/8347d3ea-8351-4709-9580-b692feeacb77

  Once the infections were party, and after having passed the safe boot, WinXP has continued to report corrupt files ("exception processing message c00001012") as well as the event ID 55 ('file system on the disk structure is damaged and unusable. Please run the CHKDSK utility on the volume C:\ ") and the same loop AUTOCHK 3 floors at each start.

  Performed repair installation using the original media.  Was now SP2 WinXP SP3, after repair.  Delay further updates pending the resolution of this problem.

  The laptop runs great now - except that the dirty bit seems to be permanently set to C: - Defrag will not work because it says a CHKDSK /f is planned.  No more "exception processing message" error (either suspect that some windows files were actually corrupt, possibly by the Virus, probably by previous disk HDD error, but were repaired and then repairing install it).

  FSUTIL always reports that C: is dirty.

  I set myself the CHKNTFS /x C: and prevents the AUTOCHK running on every boot - now it starts and works apparently without problems, except that the dirty bit is always fixed.  I didn't understand if CHKNTFS /x C: should be prohibiting the AUTOCHK run on each startup, but it is that its weight without worrying... in other words, I don't have to reset CHKNTFS /x C: before each start, it seems to be "permanently" together.  I don't think that it is the function of the switch...

  I ran CHKDSK /f C: both CHKDSK /r C: under this condition (with CHKNTFS /x together) and the two CHKDSK 5 or 3 floors seemed to run successfully every time and respectively - however they also result in an infinite loop of CHKDSKs at startup.  These are not the same that the 'normal' AUTOCHK loop system is stuck with FSUTIL /d together.  I interpret this as meaning that both the ordinary AUTOCHK and the CHKDSK manually invoked are unable to successfully disabled the Dirty bit despite not finding any errors.

  After the /d C: FSUTIL reset system always presents the same loop AUTOCHK 3 floors on each boot.  Event ID 55 continues to be connected when it is started under CHKNTFS d, is not connected when it is started under CHKNTFS/x.

  Hello ReallyWildStuff,

  If chkdsk not clear the dirty bit, that would be my recommendation to format and do a non graphic installation.

  At this point, it would be the only way to definitively say that there is no hardware problem on the disk or controller.

  As you have a picture of the previous installation, I assume that all the data is secure.

  Let us know what the results are.

  Best regards

  If the original PC was Media Center and was scrapped, then all install on a new machine is not valid - ALL Media Center licenses were OEM and as such cannot be transferred to a new computer.

• Constant blue screen with different messages (0 x 24 & 0x7B). Everything OK, but nothing works.

  System Setup: Dell Dimension E520
  250 GB, 2 GB of RAM, Core2Duo, WinXP Media Center diskette, DVD, DVD - RW (2 Bay), PCI graphics card, SATA opeartion = ON RAID in Bios (a single drive - Western Digital WDC WD2500JS).

  One night (three weeks ago, beginning of December), the computer froze.  I made a stop hard and rebooted.  Since then, he has been constantly showing the blue screen.  I get the blue screen different to different modes.  Here are some cases.

  1. If I do a Safe Boot (with command prompt) it stops on MUP.sys and then turn off for a second and then shows blue screen.
     This shows blue screen STOP: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x89B8B8B0 , 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)
  2. If I do a Safe Boot (with networking) it makes a break on MUP.sys and then turn off for a second and then shows blue screen.
     This shows blue screen STOP: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x892629F8 , 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)
  3. If I do a Safe Boot it stops on MUP.sys and then turn off for a second and then shows blue screen.
     This shows blue screen STOP: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x89B8C8B0 , 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)
  4. To last good known cofiguration (shortly shows black screen Windows XP for the loading of components and then shows blue screen.
     This shows blue screen STOP: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0X894A28B0 , 0xC0000102, 0x00000000)
  5. If I Regularly Windows XP it stops after a black screen with the logo of Windows XP and then shows then the blue screen.
     This shows blue screen STOP: 0 x 00000024 (0 x 00190203, 0x89DEC9F8 / 0x89DEB9F8 / 0x89DD99F8 , 0xC0000102, 0x00000000) continues to change the middle number.

  I tried to boot from LiveLinux (OpenSuse) and it seems to work perfectly.  I am able to access all files and able to run memory tests.  Memtest passes all iterations of several that I did.  Furthermore, I used (provided with this high-end system) system diagnostic tools, and passes all the tests of memory, hard disk of the Office.  I did as well detailed tests.  Everything seems to work with Linux, and also for diagnostic tests, so I'm lead to believe that the material works very well.

  Then I tried to re - install the XP.  When I insert the XP Setup disk, it starts to load files and then displays the message 'Setup starts windows' for a few seconds, and until it reaches to show me any system selection prompt goes blue screen.
  This shows blue screen STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF78DA63C, 0xC0000034 , 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

  Because I can't get into any time except Linux, I'm really lost here.  I want to be able to start the windows mode that's before the crash, and now I'm lost.  Help, please.

  HI -.
  I was able to identify and solve the problem by fixing the MBR.  Since Linux working and Windows are not even in the installation program, it lead me to a clue.  I also enjoyed that it was a DELL machine.  So I basically ran a utility which sets the master boot record (MBR) and the partition information.  This allowed me to access the Dell restore partition.
  I could have checked once I fixed the MBR and tried to see if the problem is solved, but I missed it and simply returned in orginal factory State, once I was able to get the image-Ghost in the recovery partition.
  Thanks to Dan for the detailed documentation and the tool here:

  I write this so that if anyone else runs into this can solve the problems.
  See you soon

• Dimension E310 will identify the 2nd HARD drive

  I am trying to add a 2nd HARD drive on my Dimension E310 (WinXP Media Center Edition 2005) without success.  I bought a naked WD10EZEX and 1.0 TB SATA cable and have physically installed the drive and connected the power cable from Garland.  SATA data cable is connected to the SATA-2 port.  When I go into the BIOS settings, the original boot drive 80 GB is recognized but the second disc of 1.0 TB is not.  I turned on the port, but the disc ID says 'unknown '.  If I spend two readers autour, the first hard disk (CT 1.0) is recognized but the second disc (the original 80 GB) drive ID: unknown.  BIOS is version A03 (08/10/05).  What I am doing wrong or do I not have a defective SATA-2 port?

  Hi, Osprey4.  Thanks for your suggestions.  I tried to connect just one drive at a time for the second SATA port, leaving the first open port and got the same results.  No disc has been recognized.  I chose to not reset the CMOS.  It seems the second port does not work.  I can accept and manage with just one port I have available with the larger HARD drive.

  Thanks again for your support.  I'll mark this thread as "resolved".

• Windows Media Player 11 under WinXP missing labels

  Windows Media Player 11 under WinXP SP3 appears as the old WMP 10 with the classic menus.

  I uninstalled and reinstalled WMP11.  The current version is 11.0.5721.5280.

  I wish I could attach a screenshot.

  All that shows is the elements of 'classic' menu file/View/Play/Toos/help.

  The large black tabs for <- -="">Now Playing | RIP | Library | Burn | Sync | Media Guide are missing.

  Enter ctrl-M to the classic menus doesn't change anything.

  By clicking on the small icon to go to the 'full' mode does nothing.

  How WMP to display the user interface of new type.  I have another computer running WinXP SP3 with WMP11 which works as expected, and I can't seem to find out what is different.
