Here's what i get when i try to start the Windows Media Center service over
the Control Panel -> Administration tools -> Services .
I tried to follow this little guide to solve my tv tuner compatibility
issues with Vista MC, posted by nyoung on 2/25/2007 in
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general ;
let me take a quote from it:
>Here's what I found after struggling with the "No TV tuner installed" message
>while setting up TV in Vista Home Premium Media Center:
> 1. Go to Computer Management...Services and Applications...Services
> 2. Find Windows Media Center Receiver Service (this is what keeps failing)
> 3. Look at the "Log On" setting (mine said Network Service)
> 4. Right-click this service, select Properties, select Log On tab.
> 5. Look at the "This account:" section (should list what login account is
>running the service).
> 6. Change the username to the Administrator account setup within Vista

< Browse...type the username...select "Check Names"...click OK.
> 7. Re-type the password for this account int the Password & Confirm

> 8. Click Apply...OK.
> 9. Left-click the Windows Media Center Receiver Service (if not already
> selected) and select the "Restart" button on the Toolbar (last icon with
> green arrow).

Then it give to me this 0x80070002 error, saying "Impossible to find the
file" ;
the service in fact it's stopped, that's why i think it's the reason Vista
Mediacenter says "cannot find tv tuner hardware".
any help will be good, thanx!
