Windows Explorer Colors
Is it possible to change the color of selected folders in Windows Explorer?
I am referring to the folders listed under C:\
It would be much easier to find a critical folder in a long list of folders
if it could be
color-coded.
I am running XP Windows Media Center Edition on a 16 bit machine.

Computer locks when an application is waiting
Hey folks!
Problem with my computer:
-Turion One-Core-cpu. with 2 GhZ/512 KB L2-Cache
-HD: 60 GB; 5400 UPM; 8 MB Cache
-Chipsatz: ATI Xpress 1100
-1 GB RAM; Pagefile disabled
-OS: Windows XP SP2 with all updates
1.) When I put a disc into the drive; e.g. Nero or explorer locks up till
the cd spinned up.
2.) When I open a website and play a flashvideo and minimize the window, the
sounds stucks for one second.
3.) I just wanted to scroll the cover flow list in iTunes. It started to
load data (I think the covers) from the hd. Parallel I wanted to chat - but
what was that: The Miranda window locked up! :-O

SP2 install from a CD
Hello,
I already have XP that came preloaded with the Compaq laptop. The system has
SP1 and I am having problems downloading SP2.
I have another XP disc with SP2 from a retired computer that has failed. Is
ther a way to use the CD in the laptop to install SP2? I see the SP2 files
but don't know how to load them since they are not executables.

security problem
hi we have a laptop which is not connected to our domain and for some reason
the local administrator account can access shared drives and say add new
folders and stuff
we also tested on another laptop logged on local and came up with the login
prompt
(which is what we want)
when creating the new folder we found out the local administrator account on
the server took owner ship of the folder as well (which i think is right)
but i just need to understand why for some reason that this local admin
account which is not on the domain can access shares which need user
permissons. any ideas Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172948
Vista upgrade - OEM
I have a Fujitsu-Siemens Scaleo P MCE 2005 PC, bought Dec 2005, which is used
as the family PC (we also have a second) and also a Media Center PC. I'm
quite happy upgrading software/hardware and supporting the family with using
the PC.
I were to upgrade to Vista, is there any reason (eg legal, technical,
functional, support etc) why I shouldn't buy an OEM version of Vista Home
premium upgrade rather than non-OEM when OEM is half the price? Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172947
Can't remove Mcafee virusscan-enterprise
Running XP Home on a Dell Dimension 9150. I attempted to remove Mcafee 8.0
before upgrading to 8.5 and somehow my registry became corrupted and I
cannot remove this program. Moreover McAfee is now disfunctional. On the
McAfee web site they suggest a very convoluted procedure for removing this
program which invloves some serious surgery on the registry.
As an an alternative a colleague suggested that I run an OS upgrade to XP
PRO and this might free up the registry. I have a slipstream CD for Pro but
am loath to do this unless there is some chance that it will do the trick.
Other than this problem my system seems to function fine. My question is:
will this approach overcome the registry problem. If so, how shall I run the
upgrade to PRO.....Many thanks --

screen resolution
Hi
Can someone please explain screen resolution to me? I understand when I'm
using Photoshop the more pixels per inch the sharper an image will be. Does
the same apply to screen resolution? If I increase it, will the text be
sharper? Also, why do all the icons on my desktop get smaller with higher
resolution?
I've got it set to 1024x768 at the moment.

Slow - jumpy TV capture on MCE Ultimate
I'm trying to setup a MCE using VIsta Ultimate, and configuration runs well
and I have the system running.
The problem is that when I try to see live TV, I get a jumpy TV capture. I
started out with the Pinnacle Vista MCE kit (110iV). As this kit only runs on
MCE and I couldn't try it out of MCE, I went back to the store and got an
AverMedia card. Installed... and I got the same jumpy capture. This time I
tried running it's own software, and... no jumps!!!
Is their specific configuration that must be performed for the MCE?
Also, I tried to run a DVD on MCE and could not get Dolby surround (even
though I have MCE configured for 5.1). When I view the same dvd on another
player, I get Dolby Surround.
Also, when I try to run a Divx video, even though I can run it on Media
Player 11, MCE insists that it does not have the codecs....
But I can't find any sepcific configuration for MCE besides that available
on the Settings menu.
I did note that the tv capture grew more jumpy as codecs were installed for
Media Player.
Can anyone provide more insight into this?
I am running an AMD Athlon 2.4Ghz, w/ 1 Gb RAM, plenty of disc and a RAdeon
350.

Red Screen instead of Video in Live/Recorded TV
When I try to run Live TV or play an old Recording in my XP MCE 2005, it just
shows a red screen while audio plays smoothly.
The same recorded videos play properly in Windows Media Player.
I think this happened after I installed an update which sounded something
like KB089250 "Rollup for Update Rollup 2" on Nov 4.
Once I got a weird error about ehshell.exe that I reported to Microsoft
which suggested that it was due to Intel's Graphics Card.
I did a system restore to an earlier date, but the problem persists.
I have an Intel GMA 900 onboard graphics card on my 915GV motherboard. My TV
Tuner is Hauppauge WinTV 88X.
Now I am afraid of re-installing the updates. Help!

Media Center 2005 Volume problem

I have noticed that my TV recordings are now having trouble with consistant
volume. i.e., normal sounds get quieter. I do not experience the same
problem whild watching TV only when I record it. I have an Angel Luminate

Has anybody else had this problem? It sounds like a 'limiter' or auto
volume level 'compression' I turned down the volume on my digital cable
box. Never had to do that before. I will see if THAT helps when I make my
next recording...

Does Vista Media Center Support Closed Captioning in Recorded TV?
Does anyone know Media Center's recorded TV will still have closed captioning
in it when you play it back? I guess Media Center supports closed captioning
while watching live TV. That's great, but will the TV shows you record for

anyone know what the best option would be for having closed captioning in

Hard Drive Problem ?
Ok, I have a eMachine with MC. Last night the hard drive light came on and
the screen stick along with the sounds. I had to push the button to shut it
down and start it again....and again within a minute or 2 the HD light came
on....stayed on and the screen stick. I ran all the virus checkers etc and
found no problems. I did a install of XP last nite and ran the disk checker
that found no problems.
right now the HD light is on for like 2 seconds and I can hear the clicking
like its searching for something, then it stops and starts again. This just
keeps happening and I cant get it to stop........it does not matter if I'm
typing or just watching it....it keeps doing it.
I'm thinking that because I reinstalled XP/MC and ran all the checkers I
have that its the hard drive itself that must be bad.......somehow !
Any Ideas would be great...........going to set up my standby old computer
in the mean time !

Power options changes by itself
I just build a new mce to replace my old. Installed MCE (xp) since I already
own a license i did not consider to buy vista. I have configured and made my
new box work excactly as the old/as I want it to, except one little thing.
In power options/power schemes I change monitor to never, hard drives 10 min
and sleep 30 min. I push apply and OK, and that setting is working quite well
until mce have done a recording (powering up by itself, record) - then the
power options is changed back to the original monitor 20 min, hard drive
never, sleep never. If I change it back it will stay so until next
recording. If I reboot the system it still holds my settings - but as soon as
it turns on by itself to record it changes my settings.
I googled the issue and found 1 guy beliving it to be the latest ATI
catalyst, but I'm not sure about that - uninstalled latest catalyst/driver
and only installed driver after reboot - problem still there. I have a ANTEC
vith VFD (and vfd application) but don't belive that is causing it either.
Can I hard code something in the register to keep my settings? Any other
solutions?

media center unable to play fixed!
i found a solution which will probably help most of the people here as i
think even though peoples probs are slightly different, they are the same, it
comes from the 64 bit vista, there are actually 2 instals of all your midea
players,and each vid file actually selects which version to use,this is what
casuse the problem, as even though you think you have the codec you need it
could be the 32 bit version, but your vid file may have opened the 64 bit
player, and that codec location would probably be empty, there is a simple
fix, just search google or yahoo for vista codec pack 4.5.2 (for the 32 bit
version) and then search for vista codec x64 components 1.3.3 (if you have a
64 bit machine) these will fix just about any codec problem in vista (the
creator is shark007,many thanks to him and go give him a donation!) Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172876

Problem with Windows Media Center in Vista -
I'm hoping that someone in the group can assit. I have a new HP
Pavilion laptop with Vista Home Premium, or at least I've had it for
the past 6 weeks and have loved it, however WMC throws errors during
repetitive tasks. This is frequent enough that it has rendered WMC
unusuable. The specific error is:
An unhandled exception ('.NullReferenceException.4313665F') occurred
in ehrec.exe [3788].
My product version is:
Windows Media Center
Windows Vista
Version 6.0.6000.16484
The only two pieces of software which I have installed recently are
yahoo messenger and Microsoft Silverlight. I suspec that the latter
may be the cause. Either that or WMC has just got itself in a twist.
I have tried system restore to a point about a week ago with no
success.
My question is - how can I fix this without reinstalling Vista? MS in
their wisdom seem to have made it impossible to uninstall and re-
install WMC in Vista HP.
Any assistance or guidance would be appreciated!

NEED HELP with Product Key on Windows XP Home
I am working on a computer for a friend that is running Windows XP Home. It
was eat up with a virus that infected almost everything on the computer so I
decided to do a new installation. My friend did not have any discs and
pressing F10 at boot, like I have had success with before would not work. I
had a Windows 98 disc, and a Windows XP Home Upgrade disc, so I installed
Windows 98 with a generic product key and then upgraded to Windows Xp Home
with my product key. I then planned on changing the product key at the time
of activation, but it wouldn't take the product key on the sticker on the PC
case. Now it is activated with my number and I am worried that I will get in
trouble for this. I never intended to pirate the software. I tried the Magic
Jelly Bean Key Changer program but it still tells me the Product key is
invalid. My friend has purchased a license when they bought the PC. I have
not changed the motherboard or anything so I think Microsoft should give me
a new Product Key that will work. I just don't know how to go about it.

I have my main monitor and I have my LCD tv near-by. I use an s-video cable
to my tv. When I have Media Center dragged over to the tv and I maximize it,
I can't get my pointer arrow back to my pc monitor to work on my pc while
watching tv. Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172819
export recording list
How do I go about exporting or backing up the list of shows I have scheduled
to record? I've bounced between a few media centers the last month or so and
am getting tired of having to recreate them manually. I've found the XML list
of what shows are already recorded and saved, but can't find anything so far
with the list of what is to be recorded in the future.
Thanks for any info

Using xbox as an extender, my picture is cut-off at the top and bo
I was using my new Vista computer and my Xbox 360 as an extender on my old,
standard screen TV. Worked perfectly!
I got a new HD LCD TV, and now everything is slightly cut-off at the top and
bottom. I have tried changing every aspect on my LCD and nothing has worked.
Any thoughts?
One of the reasons I want it back it normal, is that since the TV is a 42"
HD, it makes the non-HD tv look really bad. Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172816
REMOTE TV/SLINGBOX
I have a HP media center TV whichis set up to so that I can view my cable tv
channels on the pc monitor.
Is there a way I can view these TV program on a laptop computer antwhere in
the world using an internet connection?
Or do I meed to buy and hook up a Slingbox to my TV at at home? The Slingbox
is the device used to view TV remotely.
I figure that if I already have these channels online then perhaps all I
need is some software to enable me to access them remotely, if this was so I
could save a lot of money by not having to buy a slingbox. Tag: Media Centre - Create DVD Tag: 172815
