MovieMaker 6 crashing when saving DV-AVI format
Happy New Yera, Dear Microsoft Friends! When I attempt to save a film edited in Movie Maker 6 while using the "DV AVI PAL" save mode, my WMM keeps crashing. I am using VISTA business and I successfully saved a much smaller WMM file (High Quality VIDEO) without any crashing issues.I have lots of disk space and work memory. Why is this happening? Is there a simple fix? If so, please be so very kind as to explain in laymans terms--I'm not a computer whiz, unfortuantely. :-) If not, is ther a WMM version that supports Vista Business and supports a plug-in for color saturation. Any help is greatly appreciated! Have a nice day.Betty Botter View this thread

Code 8008005 Windows Update encountered an unknown error
Running on Windows 7 Ultimate, updates started failing a few weeks ago, then when I looked at the laptop just before Christmas I noticed ALL updates have been removed, even though it is still running SP1. If I try to check for updates I get the above error. Similarly if I try to go to IE10, that fails because of missing updates, if I try to install them manually then I am told they are not relevant for my computer. I have run the MS Fixit utility, which identifies a problem, tells me it has fixed it, but in reality it does not make any difference Norton 360 is the AV product, hav etried turning this off but it makes no difference iTunes has been removed as I read this may cause issues, makes no difference I have searched the various forums over the last few days and tried all options found, nothing works Hardware is a Dell Inspiron 1520 laptop, with 4Gb RAM I thought I may fix it by going to Windows 8, but without the fully updated Win 7, the upgrade fails Any helful suggestions will be much appreciated View this thread

No keyboard and mouse during startup ?
I have had a few problems while setting up with Windows 8 mainly with the wireless keyboard and mouse not working at all but some of this appears to be working at the moment ! My main issue now is that I have no keyboard or mouse during boot up which means I cannot access my bios at all or enter safe mode or other options. Once I get to the home screen/desktop the mouse and keyboard work again, I have tried a wired mouse and keyboard but it still does not work until I get to the start/desktop. Any idea why this is and how can I get to my bios or choose safe mode etc if I have no control ??? Also during boot, I am seeing a screen with a choice of windows 8 or Windows 7 XE which I do not have a clue what it is, there is no other operating system installed or should not be. Again as I have no control I cannot click on the Windows 7 XE logo to see what happens and I have to wait the 30 second countdown before the system automatically loads Windows 8. Where can I delete or find any reference to this Windows 7 XE thing, whatever it is. Thank You View the full article

Windows 8 Client RSAT To WHS2011 WSUS User Name Issue
This may be a bit of an obscure one, but hopefully someone else is running WSUS on their server and has the same issue.... I've upgraded to Windows 8 Pro and am having an issue with using a live user ID as my login. However, this is a slightly different issue from the normal one: I have WSUS installed on my WHS2011 (2008 R2) server and I finally managed to get the RSAT tools to install on my windows 8 client (I only have a couple of real clients, but use quite a few VMs as I am studying for Microsoft Certs, and I like to keep my VMs up to date!). However, the WSUS remote admin console won't connect from the Windows 8 Client to the WSUS on the server. I have saved a windows credential for my old local account so that file shares work, and they do work fine. When I check the security log on the server after trying to connect the WSUS console, it shows that the full live ID (my_name@hotmail.com) is being passed across as the user name, so this is why the connection is being blocked. I'm not really sure how to get around it. Of course, I can remote desktop into the server and administer WSUS that way, but it's nicer to be able to do it from my client PC. Please note that this is a Home Server so it's not a Domain environment! Any suggestions gratefully accepted. View the full article

File location from start screen
Hi guys, How do I locate the actual file from the link in the start screen? For example, I just installed the netflix app. The big netflix logo now appears in the start screen and allows me to use netflix. However, I want to see whether the executed netflix program exe is digitally signed. To this end, I have to locate where the file is located and if there are multiple netflix files in my drive, WHICH of those files is pointed to by the link on the start screen. How do I find out? Thanks. View the full article

MSXML 4.0 will not instal in Windows 8 64 bit
I am trying to install MSXML 4.0 sp3 in Windows 8. It starts then stops with " An error occured during installation of assembly component {74974f83-779E-3983-A06B-D6B9ABF34537} HRESULT: 0x80073712 " Hunting on the MS web site I found there was a msxml4-KB2721691-enu for 64 bit versions. However this (even running as administrator) gave the same error I have spent days hunting for answer on the web so obviously it is not a common problem but has certainly cropped up a few times but with no answers Do I reinstall windows 8? Is there something to look for that might be missing? Is there a setting I have to make. While I am not computer trained I can find my way around and usually solve my own problems. However at 71 yrs and having made the move from XP to Win 8 with all ties cut, I am feeling a bit out of my depth here. Any help appreciated bussoz View the full article
