Re install on XP PRO Windows Media Edition. SR2023WM

My motherboard died. I replaced it with a HP Compaq motherboard with a Dual Core CPU. I thought that I might as well upgrade since I had to get a new motherboard . The first time it was turned on, it booted up, loaded Windows and went to my Desk Top, no problem. Later in the day I thought I would do a reinstall. I used my Recovery Disks, it looked as though it was working as I was watching the Monitor. When it came time to put my second disk in, CD drive opened and screen said place the second recovery disk in. When it all was loaded, the monitor said to wait while Windows were getting ready to load. Then it looked like Windows was going to open and I get a error message, CODE PURPLE. I could not get into safe mode. I could get into the BIOS for a time or two as I was trying to figure out what was going on. Now all I see is NO SIGNAL on the Monitor. The fan on the CPU starts out running too fast, but never slows down. I have no power to my USB Ports. I was going to upgrade the old PC to give to my Son. He did purchase the motherboard, for about $85.00. Any one have any suggestions? We live in a rural part of the Country, so I can't just take it to HP. I have educated my self, as best I could, and it seems to happen a lot.
Thanks,
David Sharpe

Code Purple is the warning that Recovery Disks do not match the motherboard.Recovery will not install on a different motherboard. Only option is to find which model the motherboard came from and you may be able to find a Recovery set for it Or, purchase a retail Windows XP cd.

Can not "fully install" Quick Time on Windows Media Edition

My HP Pavillion 8000, operating on Windows Media Center, came preloaded with i tunes and Quick Time. I was initially able to use ArcSoft's multimedia e-mail program (also preloaded) and the SAVE AS feature of this program and save e-mails in Quick Time's (.mov) format (the other option is to save in the (.exe) format, which is NOT deliverable by hotmail - another sad story...)After a while, without me doing anything specific, this feature QUIT WORKING. Every time I try to save as "Quick Time (.mov) format" I get an error message stating: "you must first fully install Quick Time before you are able to perform this action". I thought upgrating to Pro might solve this problem, it did not, total waste of money. I uninstalled and reinstalled both Quick Time and Arc Soft's Multimedia e-mail, no luck. I cleaned out my registry (based on advise in this forum), and re-installed, no luck. Any suggestions? If not for the specific problem, any other good multimedia e-mail package that can save in formats deliverable by hotmail?

Thank you very much Jacumba, but I have managed to get it installed now, I do not know what really happened but all is well now.. Thank you again for taking the time to want to help me out. Have great day!

Can I install Adobe Acrobat Pro XI Student Edition on multiple computers?

I have a desktop and laptop. Can I use one purchased disk for both?

As far as I know the license restrictions are the same as the regular version, limiting to two installs. Of course, both have to be either MACs or PCs, not a combination. You should be able to find the license agreement under the legal folder of Acrobat.

Windows Media Player 9 on Mac OS X 10.5.8

I'm trying to download Windows Media Player 9 for my Mac.
I know it's lame. I don't really want it, but need it to run a Windows-based application.
I'm using Wine to open the Photostory 2 (windows) application, but it won't let me finish installing it without first installing WMP 9.
Here's the catch(es):
1) I tried to install the Windows version of WMP 10 (during a failed attempt to install Photostory 3), so I can't install the Windows 9 version because it recognizes its inferiority and refuses to install. Does anyone perhaps know how to track down the WMP 10 file to delete? I can't seem to find it anywhere.
2) When I try to install the Mac version of WMP 9, I can get as far as expanding the .bin file (.bin because it's rubbish and belongs in the bin?), but when I try to open the Windows Media Installer, it refuses to open. Does anyone know how I can fix it?
Thanks! I hope someone has an answer for me. I have to do a project for my PC-prejudiced professor by Monday (just found out today a PC is required...).

If you want to run Windows applications, you need to have Windows installed.
As for Windows Media Player, try Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft).

Downloading plug-ins for windows media player

i'm a brand new mac user -- bought a macbook less than 24 hours ago. i have not been able to trouble shoot installing plug-ins for windows media player. if anyone can advise, i would be most appreciative.

Windows Media Player for Mac was discontinued more than a year ago by Microsoft. They recommend using the free Flip4Mac player <http://www.microsoft.com/mac/otherproducts/otherproducts.aspx?pid=windowsmedia >.
A good addition to your arsenal of media players would also be the stand-alone VLC Media Player <http://www.videolan.org/vlc/>. It's a Swiss Army Knife of media players.
Hope this helps!

Any known issues using Windows Media Player?

There are some websites I visit on a regular basis, but for better viewing they require Windows Media Player
(this is the warning: "....has content of MIME type application/x-mplayer2, but you dont have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:....")
To Download or not to Download, that's my dilemma.
Any advise is appreciated.

Hi Mildred -
If you are simply wondering about whether you should download and install Windows Media Player, then go ahead. It's very useful to have. Just be sure that you are downloading from a trusted source. If you have already downloaded and installed WMP but the Windows Media Plugin wasn't installed, then you should probably reinstall WMP. If you have downloaded and installed WMP and you have the Windows Media Plugin installed but you are unable to watch certain content, it may be because the Mac version of WMP doesn't support certain file-types.
I would just add that while application/x-mplayer2 is a component of Windows Media Player, the Windows Media Plugin in my Installed Plug-ins list (Safari > Help > Installed Plug-ins) doesn't assign any extensions to that MIME type. This leads me to believe that the Mac version of WMP may not support the file types associated with the MIME type, application/x-mplayer2.

Windows media won't play mp4, audio no video

I upgraded from a desktop to the HP TouchSmart 15 TS Notebook PC so that I would have all the functionality
of a new operating system that would work. Guess I was mistaken?!?!?! I have the same problem I had with my old crappy desk-top, MP4 videos still don't play on Windows 8.1???? I get audio but no video????? just a black screen?????

According to Microsoft support website, Windows Media Player still won't support MP4 files. Though we can make WMP play MP4 video by install some codec, sometime we still encounter can't play MP4 in Windows Media Player issue. MP4 is a container format which may contain multiple video and audio streams. And the video and audio stream can be encoded any of several ways. If the MP4 video or audio codec is not WMP installed codec supported one, Windows Media Player won't play MP4 video of this kind. In order to solve "Windows Media Player won't play MP4 files even when the appropriate codec is installed" and to successfully play any MP4 video in Windows Media Player, we had better convert MP4 to Windows Media Player more supported video format like WMV, AVI.

Windows Media Installer for Mac

I tried to install WM for the Mac; when the installer comes up, it says searching my computer, but the ball keeps spinning. When I go to force quit, it says it's not responding. I downloaded the latest version (9) from the internet. Is this not compatible with Tiger? Friends using P'Cs send me some cute clips sometimes, and I'd love to be able to see them. I tried shutting down all running programs and then running the installer-- no luck. Also, ran disk permissions, Disk Warrior-- no problems there.

After you downloaded the Windows Media Player, did you use the Stuffit expander to unpack the file? If not, go here http://www.allume.com/mac/index.html and download the free version of Stuffit. Once you have expanded the file you will see the install file for the Windows Media Player, click on that and it should install properly.
The player is compatible with Tiger.

I have Microsoft Office 2011 Student Edition installed on MacBook Pro; Can I install Microsoft Office Windows 2008 onto Mac without deleting Microsoft Office 2011?

I have previously installed Microsoft Office Student Edition 2011 on my MacBook Pro. While installing Microsoft Office 2008 Windows; message prompts to delete Microsoft Office 2011. Is there a way around this issue?

Office 2008 was a Mac version. The equvalent Win version is 2007. So there is no "Office 2008 Windows." Which version are your trying to install?
Are you using Boot Camp to run Win on your MBP and want to install Office for Win there? I can't see that being a problem..
I do know that the regular version of Office Mac won't run properly if the trial version is present. The installer is set up to look for other versions, resumably to keep the trial version and the regualr from clashing.
Office Mac 2011 is equiv to Office for Win 2010
Office Mac 2008 " " " Office for Win 2007
Office Mac 2004 " " " Office for Win 2003

How to play MOV files inside Windows Media Center Edition

I've installed QT Pro, but am not able to play MOV files inside Windows Media Center Edition (MCE). Under "My Videos" from the MCE main interface, I can see the files, but once selected, error message indicates unknown/unplayable file type.
How do I get my MOV files to play inside Windows MCE??

I don't use MSI's MC application so I can't directly answer your question.
However both Win DVD 6 and PowerDVD6 play them just fine by launching the ts.ifo file.
Yes, I know that, but that means that I should use at least two applications. I need only one front end to launch all my media files, inluding ripped DVD files, not as separate VOBs but as whole movies decribed in IFO files.

Boot Camp and Windows Media Centre Edition?

Just curious ... has anyone tried installing Windows Media Centre Edition with Boot Camp on their MacBook Pro? If so, how did it work out? Any issues?

Look here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=2090789??
In general, I'd say the Boot Camp forum is a better place to work on Boot Camp issues than in the model-specific ones.
Also, searching first is always recommended. In most cases, a person coming to these forums with a question or an issue is not the first one. With one exception, of course…

Please help As i am running out of time as i have to upgrade TFS for that first step is to install SQL server.

Hello,
The following are a few things you can try:
Copy the media to the local disk drive, unzip it (in case you are installing from an ISO file, and run SQL Server setup from there.
Try to unregister and register the Windows Installer with the following two commands:
msiexec /unregister
msiexec /regserver
Try to use Process Monitor to log the detailed error produced when the installation of dw20sharedamd64.msi fails. You can download Process Monitor from the following link:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
Share with us the error captured by Process Monitor.
Hope this helps.

Windows Media Player on Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter Edition

I have a server with Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter edition installed. This server is being used as a terminal server and I needed to have Windows Media Player installed in order to use a certain feature of a program running on the terminal server. After
researching online I found that all I should need to do is install the Desktop Experience feature and Windows Media Player was included in that. After installing the Desktop Experience feature and restarting the server, I was not able to find Windows
Media Player anywhere. I tried the same process on another server running Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter with the same results.
I was curious as to if this was a Datacenter thing where it was specifically not included with Datacenter edition. I was not able to find any documentation stating that WMP was not included in Datacenter, and everything that I found stated that the feature
sets for Standard and Datacenter were the same, it was just the licensing for them was different.
Curious to see if it would get installed with Desktop Experience on Standard, I spun up a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard VM and installed Desktop Experience and sure enough WMP was installed as well. I then upgraded the Standard VM to Datacenter with a
Datacenter product key and after a restart WMP was still present.
I have also tried this exact same process with Windows Server 2012 (non R2) Datacenter edition and WMP was installed as expected, so it appears that this is only a problem with R2.
My question is, I this "works as designed" and I was just not able to find the documentation to support it or is this a bug?
Update: After doing some more playing around I noticed that if I did a clean install of Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter and then installed the Desktop Experience feature and WMP does get installed. Then I remembered that on the servers that I was trying to
install WMP on and it wasn't working were upgraded from 2012 to 2012 R2. So I created a brand new VM and installed Server 2012 Datacenter (non R2), then upgraded to Server 2012 R2 Datacenter and installed Desktop Experience and sure enough, WMP did not
install. So now I really think it is a bug and it is related to the 2012 to 2012 R2 upgrade process.

Hi Caleb CSG,
Thanks for your feedback.
I'll feedback a report to Microsoft, and I also recommend you can post this bug in Microsoft connect.
