Media Center Deluxe II won't play MP3

I cannot get media center to play or launch my MP3 player? I click on play music and the media center app stops responding? I have to kill it in task manager, everything else seems to work ok. I have a FX5600 with XP Pro sp2 and windows media player.
I also have applied the patch from the MSI tech support site.

I tried both, the actual exe and the shortcut.
I tried this for various programs and only somework.

HP Media Center M800y, System # GG755AV#ABA, Windows Vista Ultimate, Desktop will not complete boot sequence as the Blue & white HP screen which doesn't always appear, will give options to either
a).Press F10 to enter setup or,
b). to press f11 to start recovery partition in hard drive that doesn't work when tried.
Can enter setup when blue & white HP screen appears but do not know what to look for when inside.
If I pick none of the 2 options, the screen just turns black with a horizontal line "-" blinking at the upper left hand corner of the screen. Sometimes the screen will not even show the blue & white HP screen and it just stays black.
I changed the CMOS battery and nothing happened except that now the blue & white HP screen with the 2 options appears even less when I attempt to start up... I also tried using the recovery disks to no avail...
A power surge knocked out the power in my building and the computer suddenly stopped working while streaming netflix video afterwards... Then when attempting to re-boot once power was restored, The screen showed some very wierd, almost alien fonts on the top of the black screen that almost resembled Chinese or hyrogliphics. Upon further attempts to re-boot to no avail, I'm at a loss in diagnosing the possible causes or failure modes... Can somebody help me in the right direction???
I'm leaning towards either a corrupted bios via virus, or a fried hard drive or both. If you think something else or this has happened before and anyone knows a fix, I would be eternally grateful for your guidance in resolving this problem I'm experiencing.
Respectfully,
Henry

I would lean more to a hard drive problem.
A quick test is to temporarily disconnect the hard drive - the system should quickly indicate it can't find the HDD, can't boot, etc. You should also have the option to press one of the function keys to enter system BIOS.
If when you hook the drive up again - it starts getting flaky/slow again to do anything - you've likely found your culprit.

Hello and welcome to the support community
As you know, your iPhone 5 is not compatible with our iBook G4. To get your music in iTunes from your iBook to your iPhone you would need to migrate the music files to a newer intel based Mac. A Mac which has Mac OS X 10.6 or higher installed. Then sync your iPhone 5.

ITunes won't open after using Windows Media Center

Today I used Windows Media Center so I could play my music and videos through my X-Box. Now when I try to open iTunes it comes up with the message "The folder itunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this folder". Nothing has been changed, I did not lock anything, and now the folder automatically reverts itself to Read-Only. Please help

I also tried un and re-installing itunes but it did nothing

Windows Media Center on my HP TouchSmart PC won't switch channels on my attached Cable Box.

Have a Motorola DCX3501-M DVR (cable box) connected to my HP TouchSmart PC (Win 7 64-bit) in order to view and record HDTV channels. Problem is I can't get Windows Media Center to communicate with the cable box properly, e.g., when I select a channel to view in WMC (using the PC's remote control) it does not tell the cable box to switch to that channel. I have the IR cable connected from the rear of the PC and affixed to the front panel of the cable box. How can I get the cable box to work properly with this PC?

Hello Curly2U:
Did you connect the IR cables correctly ?http://www.motorola.com/staticfiles/Video-Solutions/Products/Video-CPE/All-Digital-Set-Tops/DCX3501-... Now I look up your cable box. Take the IR cable that is connected from p.c. IR out port and plug the other end directly into EXT IR IN port. Next to IEEE 1384 and Power Cord ports. I really do not see how a p.c. remote can control any thing but the computer because these remotes do not have a option to add codes to them like a universal remote does. They also do not have special butons to allow you to contol other devices such as tv's or stereos and cable boxes like a universal remote does. I checked our Help and Support and did not see anything about mentioning controlling other devices.
You might want to by pass the cable box altogether and directly plug the cable antenna wire directly into the computer and see if it can tune in cable channels. You might not need the cable box after all. There are two antenna ports on your computer try switching the cable antenna arround. I found out one antenna port olnly picked up one channel and when I switched the cable cable arround I was able to pick up all the channels.

Itunes won't run in my windows media center

I have installed the latest version of itunes on my windows media center PC (HP pavilion a1320in ). when I launch itunes it does not start and says there is an error and would send the report to MS.........
any solutions? any patches to be downloaded?

Itunes has encountered a problem and needs to close
the first thing that i check for when people report getting that message when they try to launch their itunes is a broken QuickTime.
try to open your QuickTime. does it launch properly, or do you get an error message?
if you get an error message, the first thing we'll try is a careful standalone QT 7.1 reinstall.
download and save a copy of the QT 7.1 standalone installer to your hard drive. (we'll run the install from there rather than online.) switch off antivirus and antispyware applications prior to the install.
Quicktime 7.1 Standalone Installer
if that install goes through okay, does your itunes launch properly again?
(if you get an error message on the QT standalone reinstall, let us know what it says. include error message numbers if you're getting any.)

ITunes won't open after setting up Windows Media Center

Today I used Windows Media Center so I could play my music and videos through my X-Box. Now when I try to open iTunes it comes up with the message "The folder itunes is on a locked disk or you do not have write permission for this folder". Nothing has been changed, I did not lock anything, and now the folder automatically reverts itself to Read-Only. Please help, I cant get in to update my iphone or anything.

Folders always show up as read only.
You need to select the permissions tab on the iTunes folder properties.
Your account and SYSTEM should have full control.
It's worth checking this although I don't see why installing WMC should have changed them.
There is help on permissions here:

Hi,
Based on your description, this might happen when the previous forefront files are not being completely uninstalled from the computer.
Another important aspect for troubleshooting is to look into computer registry. You need to clean the residual records of previous forefront.
Also, you should install a new .NET framework. If the current version does not work after repairing, you need to download the latest one on Microsoft official website and install it on your computer.

Windows XP Media Center Edition FAQ

What is a Media Center PC?
It is basically a regular PC, but designed to fit into your home entertainment system to replace your DVD player, Hi-Fi, TV set-top box, as well as allowing other functions as email, web browsing and more, all from the comfort of your armchair, or elsewhere
Many new Media Center PCs (MCPCs or Home Theatre PCs - HTPCs) are styled like hi-fi components to blend in under your TV, while many are regular PCs with extra multimedia functions.
What is Windows XP Media Center Edition?
Windows XP Media Center Edition (or XP MCE for short) is basically Windows XP Professional (Service Pack 2) without advanced networking support (but including Remote Desktop Connection) and extra applications to turn your PC into a fully fledged Home Theatre PC (HTPC). The main Microsoft Media Center appplication allows a full screen interface suitable for viewing on TVs (pictured below left) and controlled by an easy to use Microsoft remote control device (below right), so you can watch and record TV, view DVDs and listen to audio CDs and digital music files.
How do I get WinXP MCE?
At the time of writing, XP MCE is only available as an OEM pack which you can purchase from your nearest dealer or online reseller, or if pre-installed on a purchased system. MCE is currently only available as a 32bit (x86) version, but works on 64bit systems.
The Media Center application is also included with the Home Premium and Ultimate editions of Windows Vista.
How do I install WinXP MCE?
MCE installs the same way as any other version of Windows XP. However it cannot be installed as an upgrade, you must do a clean install. MCE comes on two disks; a WinXP XP SP2 disc, and the MCE extras disc. Boot from CD1 as you would normally when installing Windows. The setup screens will indicate Windows XP Professional, this is normal. During the graphic part of the install process, you will be prompted to insert CD2. This is obviously the second CD of the set which you should insert, as it contains the necessary extra Media Center enhancements. When it is done, Setup will ask you for the "Windows XP SP2 CD". It is actually just asking for the first disc again, so reinsert it and let it continue.
When install is complete, the system will reboot, and you will see the normal Windows XP desktop, though with a slightly different theme. To begin using the Media Center program straight away, click on Media Center in the Start Menu to begin the Media Center Setup wizard.
What graphics hardware is required for MCE to work correctly?
MCE works with DirectX 9.0c, so ideally your hardware at a minimum needs to be DirectX 9.0 compatible.
MCE requires a minimum of 64mb video RAM (shared or dedicated), 128mb recommended for the full visual "eye-candy" interface effects.
For Nvidia GPU chipsets, MCE drivers can be found here: nVidia Drivers. You'll need at least a Geforce FX5200 for MCE to work (however I have it running on an integrated Geforce 4 MX with no problems).
For ATI GPU chipsets, drivers for MCE can be found here: ATi Drivers. You'll need at least a 9250 for MCE to work, but I understand that the 9200 may also suffice.
Unfortunately, I understand that SiS and Via (S3) chipsets (as found on many mobos with integrated VGA) are NOT MCE compatible. Some Intel integrated VGA chipsets will work now, you should refer to Intel's website for updated drivers. I also understand that Via have introduced MCE compatible drivers for their Epia SP13000 ITX board, again refer to Via's website for correct drivers. However, it is recommended to use an add-in VGA card for best results, unless you have a new board which has integrated Geforce 6100 or ATI Xpress chipsets
What TV hardware works with MCE?
In order to display TV output, MCE requires an MPEG2 stream to display. It cannot encode this itself, so requires a hardware based TV tuner / capture card, such as the Hauppage PVR MCE series, or the MSI Theater 550PRO (above left). The card receives analog video through the aerial connection, or svideo / composite inputs, encodes it into MPEG2 format, which MCE can display.
This type of analog card is required to connect a cable or satellite box (eg Telewest, NTL or Sky in UK). Using the Microsoft remote receiver, two supplied IR blasters affix to the set-top box, so MCE can automatically change channels when needed.
For best picture quality on digital TV though, you can use a software-based DVB-T card, such as the Hauppauge Nova-T or the Black Gold DVB-T (above right). Using a regular aerial, these receive high quality digital terrestrial (OTA) signals (eg the Freeview service in UK), which are broadcast in MPEG2 format, and therefore no encoding is required. In the USA, ATSC is the digital terrestrial standard used, as DVB is not available there.
Unfortunately UK users of DVB-T cards will currently not be able to make use of DVB subtitles, interactive text-based services such as Teletext and BBCi, or listen to the Digital Radio services available on Freeview. UK DVB Digital Audio services are now available with MCE Rollup 2.
Unlike with VGA cards, MCE requires that your TV hardware has special BDA (Broadcast Driver Architecture) drivers which are MCE compatible. Check your hardware manufacturers website for compatible drivers.
Unfortunately, analogue TV hardware that is software-driven (such as MSI TV@nywhere and Vox) won't work in MCE.
Windows Vista Media Center will introduce support for cable (DVB-C) and satellite (DVB-S)tuner cards
Do I need any other software to make MCE work?
As MCE is essentially based around Windows Media Player 10, you will be aware that WMP cannot play DVDs until you install a suitable DVD codec. This is also the case with MCE, as until you install this MPEG2 codec, MCE won't play ANY video (including TV). So you will also need to purchase additional MCE compatible DVD player software, such as Cyberlink PowerDVD 6, Intervideo WinDVD 6, or Nvidia's DVD Decoder MPEG codec. Results can be varied using different codecs, so it is best to try a trial version of such software to see which gives you the best results before purchasing. You may find that suitable DVD software may already be supplied with some VGA or TV tuner cards.
Anything else I need?
You will also require an internet connection (not imperative, but certainly very useful) in order for MCE to access the internet in order to find and download TV guide listings, and album and artist information when playing CDs, MP3s and WMAs.
Without guide information, you will have to manually schedule TV recordings, and no programme information will be available.
If you are planning on having your Media Center in your living room, the Microsoft Remote Controller will allow you to control all aspects of the MCE interface without the need for a keyboard or mouse connected.
If you are connecting your Media Center to your TV, then your video display device will need TV-out capabilities (S-Video or Composite). S-Video offers better picture quality over composite video, but you will need to ensure your TV supports S-Video input, otherwise you will just see black and white video.
If your TV supports RGB inputs, then you may be able to obtain a VGA > RGB adaptor, which offers even better picture quality (search with Google, there are lots of sites about this). Many modern LCD and plasma TVs also support direct VGA / DVI inputs. VGA > RGB/SCART is only compatible with ATI Radeon VGA cards.
Can I watch one channel while recording another?
Yes, but you will need two identical TV devices, eg 2x DVB-T cards. You cannot have one analogue card, and one digital, as MCE presumes both hardware devices receive same channels, and can pick and choose between them. (However in the USA, you may have two analogue tuners, and one HDTV tuner)
This is straightforward when using two identical DVB-T cards. MCE has a channel list and guide data, so for example you are watching BBC1 on one tuner, MCE uses the other tuner to record the other programme on ITV2. Both cards are receiving the same input.
It gets a little more complicated if you want to do the same with a paid subscription service, such as NTL Cable or Sky Satellite in UK. As well as having two matching tuners (although I understand that some companies, including Hauppage, are releasing "dual-tuner" cards) you will also require two set-top boxes, with a subscription for each, as MCE needs to be able to change the channel on each set-top box seperately.

For some reason when using the "certified" MCE version of the Forceware drivers, after a short while all the buttons in the menus become "corrupted"
The simple solution: use regular XP/2000 version of Forceware drivers. They still work perfectly in MCE2005, and the graphical corruption doesn't appear.

Windows 7 Media Center Not Downloading EPG listing

I have virtually no EPG listings in WMC 7 I have tried rescan the TV Signals, deleted the epg listings directory, run the Object Store Recovery Task I've run MC Update and I've tried turning off the firewalls. The file downloads successfully according
the the Microsoft Event Viewer but the guide is empty except for a few channels that show the current program and the next one.
All I've succeeded in doing is wasting hours of my time, loosing the UK HD channels that WMC 7 ignores and loosing the favourite channels.
Thanks for this Microsoft

Ok a few people have asked for some simple steps to get EPG Collector working to get the EPG in WMC working, I've laid it out in step by step instructions, should take a couple of hours to do;
EPG Collector Setup – UK Freesat
Download EPG Collector, your first port of call is the sourceforge home and download the latest version (4.0), if your using windows 8 (like me) you will also need to download the fixpak;
http://sourceforge.net/projects/epgcollector/files/V4.0/
Unpack and install EPG Collector, if you are applying the fixpack unzip it and copy and paste the contents of the zip folder into the EPG collector install folder, which typically can be found at; C:\Program Files (x86)\Geekzone\EPG Collector
Run the application by clicking (depending on what version of windows you have) Start -> All Programs -> EPG Collector -> EPG Center
Click File -> Create Collection Parameters
Click UK – FreeSat, then ‘OK’
On the tuning tab I left the default selected ‘Use any available tuner’, if you have a combination of different tuners, you may need to just select the freesat tuners, otherwise just leave the settings on this tab alone.
Select the output tab and select ‘Import the data to windows media center directly’, and the ‘flag all programmes as part of a series’, do NOT select ‘automatically map EPG data to channels’ which sounds useful but from what I’ve heard really isn’t and
messes up the channel lineup.
Select the ‘lookups’ tab and select ‘Movie lookup’ and ‘tv series lookup’
Select the ‘advanced’ tab and select ‘use freeset Huffman tables’
Select File -> Save, I saved my config as ‘EPG Collector’, which made sense to me.
Select Run -> Collect EPG Data, you should now see it doing ‘stuff’, it takes about 10 minutes or so, I guess depending on your setup, when it’s finished if it didn’t have any problems it will say something to the effect of exiting with code
0, which sounds bad but it means it worked basically.
Assuming you didn’t experiment with letting it map the EPG data to the channels (I don’t recommend it) you now need to go into Media Center and re map the listings, it probably will absorb a couple of hours, these steps are for WMC 8, but 7 should be
the same, and I would assume Vista, load the program guide, right click on the channel on the left and click ‘Edit Channel’
Click ‘Edit Listings’ and select from the list the appropriate channel where it is followed by ‘-EPG Collector’ for example ‘BBC 1 London-EPG Collector’, one tip is that, at least in WMC 8 tapping the first letter of the channel jumps through the list,
e.g. tapping ‘b’ if your looking for bbc listings, saves a lot of time, nearly all the channels are there.
Click Save, and Save again and voila you should have the guide data for that channel, repeat this task for the other channels and your sorted.
Every time the EPG Collector runs it will update the EPG in WMC and you won’t have to fiddle with that mapping again, the next task is of course to automate running EPG collector so you don’t have to remember to run it yourself, I haven’t figured out the
‘easy’ steps for this part yet, so in the meantime just run the program each day to keep the data topped up.

Zen X-Fi Streaming Music from a media center Help Please

Hi,
I just opened brand new Zen X-Fi 6GB checked out it's playback installed Creative Centrale and was ready to test media streaming. Here it is where my frustration started and I hope somebody can help me.
The system:
Windows XP Pro SP3
Antivirus Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 (tried switching off during tests as well);
Windows Firewall switched off;
PC Connected through cable to wireless router Linksys WRT54GX-v2
MAC filtering is off in router
X-Fi obviously connected via wireless. Sofware version on X-Fi: .03.0 ( I know there is newer version, haven't tried that one yet)
Media Server is enabled in Creative Centrale, name to server is given. Instructions on http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowA...aspx sid=52949 have been read, everything seems to be set according to description.
Zen X-Fi finds my Wireless network and connected after I initially entered wireless password. When searching for Media Server, only Creative MediaBox comes up. This proves that Zen X-Fi is able to connect to router and that it talks to media server on internet. However, it does not see my Media Center provided by Centrale. I have also J.Ri'ver Media Center running on another PC at home that also has UPnP server running ( which I tried to switch off and on during tests). Not sure if this inmpact Centrale MEdia Server in any way. I have also found UPnP Enable/Disable option in my router setup, again traid enabling and disabling it, not sure what should be the set up.
I have probably tried to start server 25 times. There were four possible outcomes:
. Finds only Creative Media Box. Happened mostly
2. Gets stuck while searching, nothing happens. Basically have to soft reset to start it again. On/Off does not work. This happened probably 2 times during my test.
3. Once I go back from list of media servers (with only Creti've MediaBox in a list) , and try to hit Media Server again, player freezes. I get almost black screen with little backlight, which can only be seen in dark environment. Again, no other option than to soft reset. This happened 5 times
4 It found Media Server from Centrale as well as my Media Center from J.Ri'ver MEdia Center. This happened once... during my tests. Almost felt like I won lottery... Kaspesky was on during this test, by the way. Connected to Centrale and heard music, it was fine. Could not connect to J.Ri'ver media center, but that is another topic probably.
To summarize. This is not acceptable if I have to try 25 times, with 7 soft resets and hope for one succesfull connection. Certainly there is something wrong and I can't figure it out. Can you please help me

Same problem on my laptop at work, at home it just hangs looking for media server. The media server name shows up in my network devices. I turned off my firewall, etc.
I can't believe there's no response yet, I just emailed customer support.
