Installing Media Center Over XP Pro: What Am I Looking For?
by Guest (PeteCresswell)- 5 replies
- 294 views
Did the install once - got into trouble when it kept asking for SP2 - CD1, so I bypassed all those copies and then applied SP2 afterwards. Result was that I can't see any diff from when I started. TB expected maybe - as SP2 could have downleveled the Media Center stuff? But now I'm running a second Media Center install. When all the dust settles, what am I looking for to tune TV programs? I've got an ATSC card in there. Whether the driver is A-OK is another question.... could the absence of a tuner card be making XP look like it's not Media Center? Or am I looking for a specific application (other than Media Player) to tune TV? -- PeteCresswell

I have a test comptuer. So this is not a productions machine. I have been testing converting from dynamic back to basic disks. I was testing a program called ptedit that several have had success with in doing this. I made the required changed to the hard drive and then rebooted the system.

I try to reboot vi cd and run the program to put the drive back to the way it was but cannt do this. It seems it cant find the usb drive that had the program on it. My reading tells me that the reason its doing this is becasue it …

Troubleshooting 2008 server hangs
by Guest Chris Cronin- 0 replies
- 301 views
Hi, We have 5 Fujitsu-Siemens rx300S4 servers which I have installed 2008 std 32 bit and 64 bit onto (3 TS, 1 Exchange 2007 and 1 Apps). All are randomly hanging with no BSOD and no response from the console or remotely. Fujitsu have had one of the servers in their workshop for two weeks and run numerous tests with no indication as to the fault, the server has not hung once! I've used the online conciege earlier which pointed me to adplus.vbs and the debugger tools, looking at them though I'm not sure if they will help as they seem to be linked to complete crashes or single/muliple process locks rather than complete hangs! I'm open to any ideas, as I'…

I installed Systweak's Advanced System Optimizer before for trial and uninstalled it. Recently, I would try a new version but when I install and run it, it displays as the software is expired. I guess some old file or registry were not removed after I uninstalled this software last time. Does anybody know how to remove them completely?

CD Writing Wizard breaks after applying security policy
by Guest awrightus@gmail.com- 1 reply
- 338 views
Using Windows 2003 Standard. Prior to implementing a custom local security policy, the CD Writing Wizard (native Win2K CD burning) works fine. IMAPI service starts, no problems. After applying my custom template, the CD Writing Wizard gets to the point where you select "Write these files to CD", assign label, and then it says there's no disc in the drive. My security template is definitely breaking this. "Recording" tab on device still has CD recording "enabled". Not using "Restrict CD-ROM access to locally logged-on user only" in my policy. Here's the kicker. I have determined that if I grant the "Lock pages in memory" right in my local security policy (to…

Hi! From time to time I see the following error in my System event log: DCOM was unable to communicate with the computer SERVERNAME using any of the configured protocols. What scares me is that SERVERNAME is an old Exchange 2003 server we uninstalled a long time ago (we are now running Exchange 2007). How can I see where DCOM gets SERVERNAME from? Why does it try to connect to a server uninstalled over six months ago? Regards Erik
