    - Xbox 360 Extender won't play audio I have a VIsta Ultimate Media Center, with my Xbox 360 as an extender. Form MOST of my video files (mpg) files will play on the Extender, but I get no audio. If I play them on the PC within Media Center, they play fine (video and audio). I am at a loss as to why this is happening. Any pointers?

    - Re-installed Windows XP My son has recently re-installed Windows XP on my PC due to a major failure. Unfortunately he called the PC David. That was my previous user name. Now I can not use that user name and can not gain access to my previous password protected files. Can I re-name the computer or access the files without re-installing Windows?

    - can't view HD (ATSC) Channels in XP Media Center I'm having a problem viewing my local HD channels in Media Center. They load fine in setup (signals are also good), but when I try to change to them in the guide, up pops a black screen and then this error: Application Failure. A Critical Media Center process has failed. Please restart your computer and try again. If the problem persists contact your hardware manufacturer for further assisstance. I have contacted them and have not received much help at all. They tell me it has to be a Media Center problem. Nice. I'm running a TV Wonder 650 Combo with the latest drivers and Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 with Service Pack 3 and .NET Framework 2.0. Although my system properties say it's Media Center Edition 2002 which I don't understand either...lol. Any help with this problem (and why my OS is identified incorrectly as well) would be MUCH appreciated. Thanks... Mark Schu Frankenmuth, MI Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185873

    - Needing to reformat but have not disk when I bought the PC Hello I bought my Ei-System 304 at the end of 2006 from Currys. It's an Intel Pentium 4, XP Media Center Edition. I did not receive an OS disk with the PC when I purchased it, only a microsoft works 8.5 disk. I have read through the set up guide for the OS but cannot find any information on how to reformat my PC. Does anybody know if this can be acheived through the Start, Programs, System Recovery, Microsoft System Recovery? Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185869

    - Security Center Problem I recently uninstalled my antivirus/firewall (Defender Pro) and the uninstall reported it as finished successfully. Unfortunaly, the Security Center still reports both as present. When I turned on the windows firewall the security center reported that I have two active firewalls. And when I tried to load another antivirus program the antivirus install manager reported that another antivirus was present. I have searched my system and have not been able to find a file or reference to the Defender Pro files anywhere. I contacted the Defender Pro support people and they were not able to resolve my problem. So I am stuck and do not know how to remove whatever reference the security center is holding onto. Anyone have a suggestion. Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185843

    - Black Screen instead of menu when stopping recording When I stop a recorded tv session (using the stop button on the remote) I used to get a menu where I could resume, start over, delete etc.. Now I just get a black screen. I can workaround by selecting the recorded tv button, but when I navigate back to the recording, it has lost all history of where it is at. Real drag to have to FF to the previous spot, especially with a 5 hour recording of the olympics. Any suggestions? Thanks, Markus Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185822

    - OT - Ghost 2003 "Read Sector Failure" I know this isn't XP or even MS, but Symantec is next to useless, especially for an 5-year-old product, and there is very little traffic in the symantec.support. ... newsgroup. I know there are Ghost 2003 users who hang out here, so here's hoping ... I had been happily using Ghost 2003 on XP Pro sp3 to make images to a partition on a secondary internal drive. I bought a WD 500 GB USB external drive. It works fine with other apps, including Acronis TI. But Ghost 2003 crashes immediately after starting PC-DOS with Error Number 29004 "Read sector failure, result = 1, drive = 2, sectors 6291519 to 6291521." There are 3 physical hard drives in the system - 2 inside the case and 1 USB. I *think* the problem is that the USB drivers that came with Ghost 2003 can't access the newer USB drive. However, Ghost crashes now even if I direct the images back to the internal drive. The first time I tried to do this, Ghost took me to the "Add Ghost Disk Identification" wizard. So I think that now Ghost is failing when it tries to access one of its "identified" disks. How can I "un-identify" the USB drive as far as Ghost is concerned? (Or even better, can anyone suggest how I tell Ghost to use better USB drivers?) I've run chkdsk /F on all drives (and all partitions); I've uninstalled and reinstalled Ghost 2003. These efforts don't help. Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185820

After an automatic update, I will be in the middle of running an application and get a dumb msg asking if I want to reboot now or reboot later. In reality, I want to disable automatic reboots until I get finished with the task at hand, and I strongly resent this stupid intrusion interrupting and complicating my work, I want to turn it off in order to retain control over a computer that is rightfully mine and not Microsoft's!! I examined the task manager list, but the names of the processes didn't offer any clue as to which one I needed to whack in order to suppress this stupid problem. Any ideas on how to turn this off?

    - Vista Media Center and Sky TV (Composite Input) Hi all, I'm new to the forum (plenty of great information around!) but have been searching for help on the above topic for over a week to no avail. I currently have a PlusTV Hybrid PCI (DVB-T 210SE) tuner card linked up to my Sky Box via a composite connection. This works perfectly in Hyper Media Center by simply changing the source to composite. My problem is I can't find any way to have VMC look at the composite input signal. The wizard only seems to detect analogue input through the RF cable, and the picture quality is poor at best. Any help on setting up alternate input sources is vista media center is much appreciated.

    - Problems with Sony PCVA IR6U IR Blaster/ receiver I have Sony VAIO PCV-RZ-40CG system with Sony's PCVA IR6U IR Blaster. Since yesterday, one port of this 2 port blaster has stopped working. For some reason, only one port is sending IR commands to the STB. I have 2 STBs with 2 IR bugs. One port of the blaster seems to have stopped working. I tried switing the bugs (to diff ports on the blaster) and I have confirmed that STB connected to defective port, is not able to change channels any more. I don't see LEDs lighting up when I change channels on IR bug connected to defective port. I have tried re-calibrating the STB and setting up TV signal again. When its time to calibrate STB connected to defective port, the IR blaster simply does not recognize the STB remote at all. Two questions. 1) How to I fix it? 2) Where do I buy a new IR blaster kit? I tried Best Buy, Fry's today and they have no idea what it means and/or where to find one. Thanks in advance for any help I can get. Tag: seeing Network shares on Xbox 360 Extender Tag: 185761

An attempt to launch JIT debugger with debugger with following command resulted in an error code of 0x2(2) corbg.exe !a0x7b8 I now am not even able to get the Media Center to open.
