    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    The updates for the Geforce2 are to provide high resolution monitor support.
    Though specifically stated as for use with Apple monitors, I would try updating the ROM of the Geforce first.
    VGA may not work with the widescreen monitor, but DVI might.
    There is no guarantee that the card will work with the monitor, but with the update, it should output digital resolutions of up to 1920x1200.
    Using an ADC to DVI adapter might be the best way to go (with the update as well).

  • I need help with my operating system

    Okay, little bit of background:
    I bought the iMac second hand from a family friend who we no longer have contact with, the operating system etc was already installed.
    The disk drive on the mac is broke (I dont have the disks anyway, so it would be no use)
    I never purchased the operating system, like I said, it was pre-loaded.
    A few programmes weren't running correctly and the computer was just generally running slowly, so I decided to just restore the system as there was no important data on it and it would run faster in the end, and I figured the programmes would run properly again once restored.
    Anyway, I unknowingly deleted the operating system in the process of the restore (I thought it would only delete personal data like it does on my windows PC)
    I have no restore disk (a broken disk drive anyway), my apple ID was not used to buy the operating system, so therefore it cant be used to restore the operating system, I also never backed up the harddrive externally so it cant be reinstalled from that.
    My problem: I have no operating system and no way of recovering it. I read about Mavericks and because its free, I decided to try and download it, but with no operating system, the mac can only run 'Safari' and wont save things I try to download to the harddrive (it just says theres no space and the download doesnt happen). I also tried to access the App Store from Safari to try to download OS X lion on my apple ID, but once again, when using Safari on a mac without an operating system, it is very restrictive and I cant access the download page.
    I have no idea what to do and live miles away from the nearest apple store.
    Thanks in advance for any help provided by anyone.
    Jordan.
    Additional information:
    Its a 2007 iMac which was running OS X Lion 10.7.4 (I think, it was definitely Lion though).

    Ah. Well, then you have an itty-bitty problem. You need to backup your files to start with. You will need your retail Snow Leopard installer DVD which your friend should have provided to you. If he did not then ask him to bring it to you. It belongs to you along with the original distribution discs that came with computer when it was new.
    Do the following once you have the Snow Leopard DVD:
    Clean Install of Snow Leopard
    Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
    the drive and everything on it.
         1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
             with your computer.  Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
             After the chime press and hold down the  "C" key.  Release the key when you see
             a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
         2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
             button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
             After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
             size.)  Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.  Set the number of
             partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
             and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
             (Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
         3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer.  Proceed
             with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
         4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
             Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
             username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
             Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
             install of OS X.  You can now begin the update process by opening Software
             Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
    Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
    Upgrading to Lion
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    After you sign into your App Store account with your Apple ID click on the Redeem option under Quick Links to download your copy of Lion.
    As an aside to this: All actual 2007 iMacs are able to run Mavericks. So rather than buying Lion you may prefer to upgrade to Mavericks which is Free.

  • How do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

    how do you open a Numbers file sent from another Mac user with same operating system, i get a pop up that says I'm missing an index.hml file??? HELP PLEASE

    The operating system may be the same but the Numbers applications are likely different.  You need to get the apps in sync.  Unfortunately, the Numbers (and Pages as well) saga is pretty confusing (and frustrating).  Here's some info from the iWork resident version expert (PeterBreis0807):
    Pages '09/'08 can not open Pages 5 files and you will get the warning that you need a newer version.
    Pages 5.2 can open Pages '09 files but may damage/alter them. It can not open Pages '08 files at all.
    Older versions of Pages 5 can not open files from later versions of Pages 5.
    Once opened and saved in Pages 5 the Pages '09 files can not be opened in Pages '09.
    Anything that is saved to iCloud and opened in a newer version of Pages is also converted to Pages 5 files.
    All Pages files no matter what version and incompatibility have the same extension .pages.
    Pages 5 files are now only compatible with themselves on a very restricted set of hardware, software and Operating Systems and will not transfer correctly on any other server software than iCloud.
    Apple has removed almost 100 features from Pages 5 and added many bugs.

  • HELP!! Authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems

    My BF installed Win 7 operation system on his laptop yesterday and re-authorized it when he used iTunes. However, when he finished authorization, a dialog block showing that "*Including this one, you have authorised two computers out of your available 5*" appeared; what's worse, when he connected his iPhone to the laptop, it deleted all the bought apps in the iPhone, instead of synchronizating.
    I also want to install Win 7 operation system, but I'm afraid that the same thing would happen again (to my iTouch).
    We're quite confused that why the authorization in the same laptop with different operation systems is counted as two times. Friends who know please tell us whether this is the case.. If not, please tell us how to deal with it as we frequently re-install operation system for quicker operation.

  • MSI TV @nywhere Stopped Working

    Ok, so I got my MSI TV @nywhere about a week and a half ago, great card. Nice quality etc. Now all of a sudden it doesn't work! It came with WinDVR, and now when I load it up I get an error when the TV should pop up (this program has encountered a problem and needs to close). So I reinstall it. Nothing. I Uninstall it, and clean the folder out then install. Nothing. I reinstall the driver for my card. Nothing. I remove everything from the card in the device manager, uninstall WinDVR completely, take the card out, boot up, then shut down and put the card back in and install everything again. Nothing. ARGH! I download the trial for Power VCR II or whatever just to see if it's WinDVR with the problem. But Power VCR can't detect any channels! It says MSI TV @nywhere as the TV Tuner (so it knows it's there). WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS WRONG!?!?!?
    Please help!

    I do beleive the MSIDVR is another re-badged InterVideo product from MSI... they are sooooo prone to this type of error it's not funny.....
    In fact, I can almost bet you that if you get that message again and click the "more info" link you'll see the problem in the Windows "C" Library file called "MFC42.DLL".
    I myself did have the exact same problem with WinCoder, another MSI released InterVideo product... and I received the same sort of strange result. I am led to believe that there is a major issue that combines a driver error and InterVideo's software.... I posted my "reply" to a previous article located at:
    http://www.msi.com.tw/program/e_service/forum/viewindex.php?threadid=2660&boardid=9&styleid=1
    Too much to re-post, have a look.

  • READ this: MSI TV @nywhere Plus + Dscaler

    My Pinnacle pctv pro has gone ( I suspect overheating). 
    Used Dscaler for tv (ecxelent picture, ultra fast channel switchig) and VDub for recording (Huffyuv lossless codec).
    It was super card. On differnt forums I read:this card is good, this card is peace of  ....., but I think that every card is good as long it has good software.
    Dscaler pulls maximum of the card out. For me is one of the best programs ewer written. :biggthumbsup:for the author !!
    So I decided to buy something cheap. I bought MSI TV @nywhere Plus about 4 monthes ago.
    Installation go smooth, MSI TVR works without problems, but TV picture was, like I ecxpected,  not even close Dscalers.
    After many ours, managed to work it with Dscaler 4.1.15.
    Settings:  Card   Asus 7131D
                  Tuner  Philips TDA8275
    For each channel choose right Format ( for me Pal-B) and frequency.
    Picture is on channels with good reception like watching DVD, but channel switch is a little bit slow ( the card is not directly supported).
    Note - Dscaler is just for watching, for recording is original Msi Tvr more than good.
    I had problem to use Dscaler and Msi tvr together ( Msi tvr reports error - list index out of bounds), but i solved it -
    send shortcut C:\Program Files\MSI\TV@Anywhere Plus\TVR\MSITVR.exe to desktop and run it from there.
    Remember - dont ecxpect miracles with MSI TV @nywhere Plus but for this money ( 3 x cheaper then was my pctv pro), must say that MSI TV @nywhere Plus  is ecxellent card.
    Hope, that I helped anyone with this.

    glad you're enjoying it! i don't use my TV@nywhere Plus much, apart from to use it to play my Nintendo GameCube, but i think its an all round better solution than the TV@nywhere Master it replaced (as well as being much cheaper too). however, once you go down the Digital TV route, you'll never go back to analogue TV again

  • MSI TV@nywhere MASTER PCI TV Tuner card FAQ

    So you’ve just decided to add a MSI TV@nywhere Master card to your PC, you’re gonna need some help installing it then!! Before you continue, I recommend you download the Unofficial New Drivers in the other sticky, to avoid any heart (and brain!) ache.
    For best results also, you should be running at least DirectX 8.1. This is included on the driver CD, or you can download the latest version from Microsoft's DirectX Page. If you have a P4 which supports Hyperthreading, you will also need at least Windows XP SP2, otherwise you will have to disable hyperthreading in BIOS.
    You should also be in the habit of having the latest drivers for your video card, audio card and motherboard chipset; this can also avoid any future TV software failure. And make sure you regularly run Windows Update (or use the Automatic Update feature) to keep your Windows clean and up-to-date. And also remember when installing new drivers or software, if the installer suggests you restart the computer then do so, before you install anything else! Drivers not installing correctly are common causes of problems, especially with this card!
    INSTALLING THE HARDWARE
    I’m presuming you’re familiar with the concepts of building and upgrading PCs, so I won’t go into too much detail on obvious stuff (like “remove the side panel of your case, locate a free PCI slot…”).
    Fit the TV@nywhere Master card into a free PCI slot. If you didn’t get one with it, you’ll need a CD-audio lead from somewhere (the thin grey lead). If you have one connected between your CD drive and your soundcard CD-Audio In connector, then use that, any version of Windows after 98 supports digital audio extraction, so it is not needed there now. Connect one end of the audio lead to the 4 pin header on the TV@nywhere card and the other to the AUX input on your soundcard (or motherboard if using onboard). If you are installing the Mega TV Tuner in a Mega series barebones, connect it to the TV audio input on the mainboard to the rear. Don’t worry about using the 3.5mm jack plug lead to connect tv card audio, we don’t need it now, doing it this way.
    CONNECTING YOUR TV SIGNAL
    Depending on your global location, this may vary. Either way you need to connect either a aerial (ANTENNA) or cable (CABLE) to the CATV connector on the card. Someone will no doubt clarify this for me, but cable is for US-type cable, which doesn’t need a decoder box. Most people will be using the Antenna I’m guessing. Your choice of CABLE or ANTENNA needs to be remembered, you’ll need this later.
    You will not be able (or have limited success) in connecting a video recorder or set-top box to the CATV connector. Instead you will need to use the Composite or S-Video connector, and connect the audio source either directly to the soundcard or to the Line-in on the TV card.
    INSTALLING THE DRIVER
    Don’t use the driver on the CD. Download the latest driver from the MSI download page. If you are a Mega series user, make sure that Windows has been installed onto the C: drive. If not you’ll have to reinstall, and disable the USB controller in BIOS to prevent the card readers becoming the C: and D: drives. This also causes problems later.
    I would advise temporarily disabling any anti-virus programs at this point, to avoid any complications.
    When you start up after first installing the card, cancel any Found New Hardware wizards that appear. OK, so extract the contents of the downloaded ZIP, and run the PVSSetup.exe file to install the drivers. Once this is complete, RESTART your PC and the drivers will be installed for the new hardware found.
    Check in Device Manager, there should be four new hardware listed under Sound, Video and Game Controllers related to MS8606. If you see any with the (?) next to them, you might need to try the card in another slot.
    INSTALLING THE MSIPVS TV SOFTWARE
    If you wish to use other TV recording software other than MSIPVS then please feel free to do so.
    MSI do not make their own software. At least not all the time. MSIPVS is a rebranded version of Intervideo’s WinDVR software, with extra features added such as network streaming for TV@nywhere. Some people love it. Lots of people hate it. Generally most people who have posted here hate it. People who love it tend not to post if they don't have problems.  The people that hate it generally mess initial settings up, which can cause problems when they try to change it. The more patient of us will always get it eventually right!
    Install the MSIPVS software. Easy as that. Its setting it up correctly that’s the tricky part. Listed below are the main things to look for when performing initial setup. If you are unsure about anything else then read the manual! Only a complete genius would dare install any unfamiliar hardware without having the manual handy for reference - how do you suppose I learnt anything? 
    Device
    Video Input:
    "Device" is always the Conexant Cx2388x Video Capture"
    "Source" - select TV if you are connecting your signal to the CATV connector (antenna or cable), select S-Video or Composite if using these instead
    "Standard" - set this to your local TV standard, eg if in UK set to "PAL-I". if unsure, do a Google search and find out!!
    If you don't set these correctly you won't receive any channels and/or they will appear incorrectly.
    Audio Input:
    "Device" will be your soundcard or onboard audio device
    "Source" will be the connector your TV card audio output is connected to, this will be "TV" on Mega series, otherwise check!! If you connected the internal lead to AUX on your soundcard or mobo, then set it to "AUX". If you used external lead to connect to Line-In, this will be "Line-in" etc etc.
    If you don't set these correctly you may or may not hear audio while watching live TV, and you will hear no audio on recorded TV.
    TV
    Tuner:
    "Input" will be Antenna if you have an aerial connected, or Cable if you are connected to unencoded cable TV.
    "Country or Region" - if need to explain this one then maybe you shouldn't have this card!
    Channel
    Now we will see if your settings and TV signal are good! Tick the Freescan box, and then click on Autoscan. This may take a while, and for a short time it may appear that the program is doing nothing. Patience! It will soon start, and then pick up any available channels it can find.
    Make sure you have a good strong signal if you are using an aerial, otherwise TV@nywhere won’t pick up as many channels. UK viewers – just using a simple set-top aerial and signal booster, I could even receive Channel Five (or “five” as it is known now!)
    So at this point now, if all has gone well, you should be able to watch and record TV on your PC!                                     If it hasn't...

    "I've lost my CDs and MSIPVS needs a serial number to install!"
    MSI in their wisdom printed the serial key for MSIPVS on the actual CD. This serial key is the same printed on EVERY CD. Which kind of defeats the object in my humble opinion. Anyways, the answer can be found in this post: MSIPVS requires serial number!
    "When installing MSIPVS, the program hangs then shows a message saying "remote procedure call failed" "
    If you are a Mega user, you have installed Windows onto a partition other than C:. You will need to reinstall Windows, making sure you disable USB controller in BIOS, so that the card readers do not take up C: and D: drives. Upon first restart (after Windows has created partition), you may re-enter BIOS and enable USB controller before Windows continues installing itself.
    "MSIPVS installs, but when I start the application I get an error message "WinDVR has caused a problem and needs to shutdown" "
    hpkuo credits this to sizzle in his hints and tips thread, but I'll elaborate a little. The problem is caused by QuickTime codecs installed by Nero 6.3.1.15. It is unclear whether later versions of Nero were fixed, but earlier versions should be okay. "A "quick fix" is to rename the files "NeQTADec.ax" and "NeQTVDec.ax" in "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\"."
    Another alternative suggestion is to uninstall the codecs from the registry. I found this solution in another forum for another TV card with same problem:
    Go to Start > Run (or press Windows key + R) and enter:
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\NeQTADec.ax"
    regsvr32 /u "C:\Program Files\Common Files\Ahead\DSFilter\NeQTVDec.ax"
    The only consequence seems to be that Nero Vision can’t decode Apple Quick time format after this (something I can live with)
    If you do require QuickTime codecs to be installed, there is the Quicktime alternative available from here: http://www.free-codecs.com/download/QuickTime_Alternative.htm . Or you could just use an earlier version of Nero.
    PS if you are using a non-english setup of Windows, then the above paths will relate to how windows translates on your PC - ie subsitute Program Files etc for your local translation 
    "I have connected the external audio lead to the Line-In (blue) jack on my mobo, and set it correctly in MSIPVS, but I hear no TV sound"
    If your mobo supports 5.1 speakers but only has three jacks on rear, the Line-in and Mic jacks have been configured to act as Rear Speaker and Center/Sub outputs. If you have only two speakers, they should be connected to the green Front Speaker jack. You will need to go into your audio hardware's configuration panel / Windows Audio Device Properties to correctly configure the rear jacks.
    The other alternative is to use the internal audio connector - simply use a CD-audio lead to connect it to the AUX or CD internal connector on your mobo or soundcard. CD audio leads (the analog grey lead from your CD drive to the soundcard / mobo CD audio connector) are redundant now, as Windows now uses digital audio extraction through IDE channel. Make sure you set the audio signal correctly in MSIPVS to match this.
    "When I start up Windows I can hear a hissing like "static" / the radio is playing"
    One issue that was fixed in the latest Drivers; if that still doesn't work then the Radio volume is not muted at Windows startup. I'll let hschroed take over here:
    "Both MSI Radio and MSI PVS, unmute the TV card at program start, and mute the TV card at SUCCESSFUL program exit (remember we are not talking about the soundcard mixer state here). What this means is as long as a single program start and a single SUCCESSFUL program exit takes place, the TV card tuner will be muted, regardless of what the soundcard mixer audio source states are. If the PC is rebooted (without a PC power-off), for whatever reason, while the MSI Radio or MSI PVS program is executing (a successful exit has not been performed), the TV card will remain in an unmuted state until the next startup and successful exit of either of the two programs.
    The TV card mute/unmute status is carried over a reboot without PC power off. What this means is that after a PC power on, once the TV card has been properly muted by a start and successful exit of the MSI program, the TV card mute/unmute status should be in proper synchronization with the applications (regardless of the soundcard mixer status), as long as the PC is not powered off. (Romulus mentions computer coming out of standby. I did not test that scenario but I would expect that if going into standby means power is stopped to TV card, the effect would be similar to a PC power off)."
    "My regular TV receives all 5 channels (even Channel Five!), but when I connect aerial to TV@nywhere I only get 3"
    Common to all TV tuner hardware (not just MSI's!) is the need for a good strong signal. A moderate signal might appear okay on a regular domestic TV, but might not be strong enough for the TV tuner hardware. Consider investing in a good signal booster, or getting your aerial changed.
    Consequently, I have also learned today that TOO strong a signal is bad for TV tuner cards, as soon as I know more I'll let you know...
    "I have connected my VCR to the CATV connector, but it does not appear when autoscanning."
    "I cannot receive any channels when I connect my Sky box to the RF (CATV) connector."
    Thanks to a wonderful technology called "Macrovision" protection, many VCRs and satellite/cable boxes won't work in this way by connecting them using their RF output. Anyone who gets a result is very lucky. There's always the Composite and S-Video In connectors to try. But either way, the TV@nywhere card won't scan all their channels, you'll still have to change them manually.
    "Windows XP Media Center says that my "tuner hardware is malfunctioning or not installed" but I have installed the latest TV@nywhere drivers from MSI"
    Neither the Vox or the TV@nywhere cards are compatible with MCE2005. MCE2005 requires an analogue TV card capable of hardware MPEG2 encoding, or a software DVB-T (digital) card that already receives an MPEG2 video stream over-the-air.
    You can however still use the Vox or the TV@nywhere using the MSIPVS software outside of the MCE2005 application.
    "MSIPVS keeps defaulting my location back to Afghanistan, even though I set it to US / UK/ Sweden / Latvia / Kazahkstan"
    You will need to reinstall the drivers and software due to a glitch. Uninstall MSIPVS and the tuner drivers (with its PVSSetup.exe setup program) then restart your PC, and ignore the Found New Hardware wizard. Install the tuner drivers with the PVSSetup.exe program, then restart your PC. Then install MSIPVS, restart your PC and you're good to go again!
    "Where can I find these "Unofficial New Drivers" that people keep referring to here?"
    The "Unofficial New (BETA) Drivers" became obsolete when MSI officially released them. You can find them on the Product Support page for this card, as they are now the latest drivers. MSI TV@nywhere Master product page

  • CTplay2 has performed an illegal operation when trying to rip a track from a cd into Playcent

    I have had Creative Playcenter for about three years with no problems until a week ago.
    I was surfing the Internet and while on one webpage, I had the Playcenter
    playing a playlist, the computer locked up after I tried to close a pop up ad. After rebooting, the Playcenter lost the list of tracks, it had the albums and artist lists, yet the track list showed "0". I uninstalled and reinstalled the software and reloaded
    the tracks from the Nomad and now I am unable to rip tracks from cd's. I am able to convert existing wave files ripped from other cd ripping software yet cannot use the Creative Playcenter rip and convert feature without encountering this illegal operation message then it shuts it down. It's able to create the file where the mp3's are stored, but unable to tranfer the MP3 to it. No other changes have been made to my computer either. I just hope that I do not have to do a dreaded format and reinstall to fix this.
    I really like this Creative product since I have had it have not had any problems with either the Nomad Jukebox or the software until the Internet surfing incident about a week ago
    Creative Nomad Jukebox 2LX 20GB
    Computer: AMD 500mhz
    OS: Windows 98SE
    Anti virus: Norton
    Soundcard Creative
    This error occurs when I try to rip a cd track into the Play Center. I have tried to repair from the disc with the anti virus disabled and while reinstalling another error message appears "scandir has caused an illegal operation" during the reinstall.

    The original version that came with the installation disc "3.02.58". I have not updated it since I installed the first time because I had not had any problems with it until recently.
    Also I forgot to mention in my first post, I have added some extra system sounds to my computer and that may have contributed to the problem of it freezing up at the time I clicked on the pop up ad in order to close it out. Some of the sounds activate during "restore up" and "minimize", the sounds or other Windows sounds do not activate while Playcenter is in use.

  • 9.0.124.0 Update - Firefox Illegal Operation

    My system, Windows XP SP3, IE 7, Firefox 2.0 , Flash Player
    9.0.124.0. After a recent Windows update which included SP3 I had
    to install Flash Player latest version for IE7. The normal Flash
    download and install wouldn't work. It caused IE7 to crash
    repeatedly. Followed Adobe's online recommendations - uninstall and
    redownload didn't work. Downgrading IE7 security to medium didn't
    work. The Adobe Flash uninstall tool didn't work. Their final
    online solution (which required several steps) regarding Windows
    registry permissions was successful for IE7in my case: from the
    Adobe technote -
    "Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that
    prevent the Flash Player installation. For instruction on how to
    run SubInACL to fix these permission issues please refer to
    "Download SubInACL from Microsoft to fix permission issues that
    prevent the Flash Player installation" (TechNote fb1634cb)."
    Of course I was using Firefox 2.0 to do this online
    troubleshooting (version info: latest version - Mozilla/5.0
    (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404
    Firefox/2.0.0.14). Flash had always worked fine in Firefox
    previously for me. Firefox is my preferred (default) browser. I use
    IE7 only for a very few Microsoft and other sites that
    display/download correctly only via IE7 (including Microsft
    Update). Now following the suggested IE7 fix, my Firefox
    Flashplayer plugin is broken.
    When I first opened Firefox after the IE7 fix, any pages with
    Flash reported the missing plugin message. Using the Firefox
    "Install missing plugins" feature tried to install the Flash Player
    Plugin but failed. Visiting the Adobe website and following the
    download and install Flash Player instructions with Firefox seemed
    to work. The Flash plugin reported successful install. Now visiting
    almost any Flash enabled website in Firefox results in this Firefox
    error message -
    "Shockwave flash: The plugin has performed an illegal operation.
    You are strongly advised to restart Firefox"
    Now uninstalling and re-installing Flashplayer are not
    working for Firefox. Searching the forums here doesn't give any
    recent instance of this error message for version 9.0.124.0 (that I
    can find anyway...) that seem pertinent. I need to get Adobe Flash
    Player working with Firefox 2.0 again. Any help appreciated.
    - note - don't use any 3rd party pop-up blockers etc. Do use
    anti-virus AVG 8.0 Free (disabled for installs/uninstalls) with
    their LinkScanner tool disabled. thx - Andy

  • MSI TV @nywhere Completely Worthless?

    So I installed the 8606 drivers which were hard as heck to find on their website, since it has 8786 or whatever as the main drivers. Anyways, installed them, installed pertinent software.
    Problem:
    I can't change channels. It does a full scan, looks everywhere, and even the channel # changes, but it stays at #1, and neither the image nor the sound change, it stays fixed a the first channel. Windows device manager has no problem .
    Problem:
    Its mono, I've heard others have this problem, but I frankly don't care.
    Problem:
    Virtualdub, other things don't capture RAW AVI at 640x480 YUV9. Everyone else seems to be able to do it with other cards. Any idea?

    Ahhhh NOOOO :(.
    Are you guys saying that the MSI TV@nywhere is NOT stereo? That it can't play stereo sound? Cause I'm only able to get mono on mine at the moment and I've been playing around with it for a while to enable the functions.
    I can't even get the remote to work :(.
    I don't get this.
    It says that it's stereo on several sites and some seem to be able to get it. I don't know :(.
    Can anyone help me with this? I don't have the MASTER version but the other one. At the moment, I'm only able to get the sound on one of my speakers at a time :(.

  • Search Server Error - Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion

    Hello,
    I have a 5 server farm (DC, 2 WFEs, 1 SQL,1 CA w/ search) and am experiencing an issue when returning search results.  This issue just started occurring recently, and basically the search page throws a correlation id whenever used.  The error returned
    is:
    SearchServiceApplication::Execute--Exception: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800703FA): Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703FA)
    SearchServiceApplicationProxy::Execute--Error occured: System.ServiceModel.FaultException`1[System.ServiceModel.ExceptionDetail]: Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703FA) (Fault Detail
    is equal to An ExceptionDetail, likely created by IncludeExceptionDetailInFaults=true, whose value is: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException: Illegal operation attempted on a registry key that has been marked for deletion. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800703FA)
    I even attempted to create an out of the box enterprise search site with OOB masterpages and I still am receiving this error.  
    I have also tried the  ‘Do not forcefully unload the registry at user logoff’ registry edit, but it did not work.
    Has anyone ran into this issue and has another solution other than the ‘Do not forcefully unload the registry at user logoff’ registry edit?
    Thanks!

    IISReset works for me (but after some time it fails again)
