When I burn a DVD using windows movie maker on windows vista, the dvd will only play on the computer it was made on. It will not work on any other computer or DVD player. Any ideas why not? Don't have this problem when making a movie using movie maker on computer with windows XP.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm new to the forums as you can tell by my post count, and was wondering if anybody had any suggestions on a decent gaming computer, to run games such as C&C 3 ( and 4 in 2010) CS:S, and maybe even FO3. I have around £500 to spend ( monitor is not needed ), I have found a pretty decent looking computer from Staples:Staples.co.uk Your business partner for Office Supplies, furniture and technology. Just wondering if this comptuer is decent enough to handle these games, and maybe future releases. Also could someone please explain what is the difference between Intergrated graphics and dedicated graphics. I don't have too much experience with the hardware of computers, so building one is off the question.

Though the automatic discovery never worked between the two but after manually adding the mouse after each bootup, the mouse worked fine before the SP2 upgrade. Since then the mouse doesn't show up in the paring window at all.
View 9 Replies View Relatedwhen i made a new account i put it as a standard user and when i went to that user to set it up i was just a blue screen and i could see the mouse and move it around and when i hit ctrl-alt-delete the little list would come up and when it clicked on task manager it would come up and nothing was running in the applications so i clicked on new task and typed in winver because that is the only task i can remember and it came up any you could see the information or the computer.
so i logged off the user and went back to my account (wich it the admin) and set the new user as an administrator and then i logged back on to the account and the screen came up and you could do everything. I thought it was a one time thing so i went back and put it back on standard and tried it again and the same thing happend. i have tried it atleast five times but nothing has happend. i do not know what to do but leave it on administrator but i dont want that account on admin.

I had to rebuild my workstation. I performed a backup, but not a system recovery. Just want my files. It backed up all my files, but when I try to restore them using the restore client, it only shows a small subset of the files I had under my user directory. However, if I look at the ext. disk I backed them up to, I see hundreds of zip files. If I look into those files, I see all my missing files. How come I cannot see all these files in my restore client? Is there a way to fix this? P.S. I have taken ownership of these files using my new account.

Okay so I wanted to make a DVD, I opened Windows DVD Maker, added the movies etc. But when i click Burn, a message pops up that says "The Disc in your DVD burner is not a recordable DVD. Please insert a recordable or rewriteable DVD." I attached a pic of the message, its stupid.bmp.
I am using Memorex DVD-R 4.7GB, so i know that the DVD can be used.
I tried burning with the Roxio programme that came installed already when i got my Laptop. It completed burning, but when I ejected the DVD, only a tiny strip was written. When I put the DVD in my dvd player it says Bad Disc and on the comp, it has a DVD picture with DVD-R underneath it, and it says DVD RW Drive (E: ) name of dvd. It tells me that i have 4.38GB of free space. i attached a pic of this because i dont think i explained it well, its disc.bmp

i can read dvd's however, i can't burn dvd's, i've search for solutions but i've found none, hopefully i'll get one here. I throught the problem would be solved with a system restore, starting from scratch, i have tried roxio, nero and windows vista itself to burn my dvd none with success.
View 5 Replies View RelatedTo burn an image and when i re-install vista for whatever reason, i could load that dvd and it'll take me back to the same settings, files, etc. Something like System Restore but it's not ( i think anyways ). I said 'might' as i'm afraid if i read it wrong. I can't even remember where i read it from. So, everything i just said, does it actually exists or i totally read it wrong?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am having the same problem as Scubiekim - except I DO use Windows Vista. When I put a CD-R in the drive, and try to burn pics onto it, it tells me I can't. Then every 5 minutes since I've tried, I get a balloon on the bottom of my screen saying "You have files waiting to be burned to disc. To view files, click this balloon". I then click the balloon, and nothing happens. I know it's not a problem with the CD, since I have other pictures on it, and it's not full. The pics I'm trying to work with are JPEG files, the same as the pics that are already on the disc.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI spent all day yesterday creating 2 movies in Windows Movie Maker that included photo's and video's. They were just perfect. I went into burn the DVD's, it said Windows DVD Maker will close and save your movie and start it in DVD Maker. It did, but then I realized I wasn't going to have time to burn them. When I closed it asked if I wanted to save them and I clicked yes.
When I went back into Windows Movie Maker I can open the saved movies but the video's have red X's on them in the storyboard and timeline views. If I click on the X, the option that applies is "browse for missing file". When I do that it takes me to the file on my computer where the video was prior to importing it into Movie Maker, which now says it has no such video. how can I get them back? I am so frustrated I scream, I've looked everywhere on my computer, in my recycle bin, etc. and they all say they don't have it.
I have been trying in vain to burn some TV show DVD's from uTorrent. After a lot of investigating I have come to the conclusion that Windows Media Player in Windows Vista Home Basic won't allow me to do this. I can PLAY purchased DVD but not burn.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have recorded a number of shows and movies using Vista media center but am having problems burning them to DVDs. When I look at the file size of a 2-3 hr movie, the file size is somewhere between 6Gb-8Gb. Since the capacity of my DVDs are only 4.7Gb, I can only assume that most movie DVDs are using some type of compression software that decompresses the file as it plays. My question is, what type of software do I need to allow me to burn these files to a DVD so I still have them without using up all of my hard drive storage space.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have an HP Pavilion Media Center m8200n PC with Windows Vista Home Premium. The problem is with publishing from WMM to DVD using Windows DVD Maker. The encoding process goes fine but once it begins to finalize (98.8%) the DVD will eject and then it gives me the message that it cannot complete the burning process due to an error but it doesn’t tell me what the error is. The only thing mentioned is to check the burner and make sure it is connect properly. I should mention that I have an internal LightScribe burner (ATAPI DVD A DH16A3L SCSI cd Rom device). After spending the better part of a Sunday afternoon I tried using only a LightScribe DVD and that worked but in the past I had been able to use any brand DVD. Does anyone have an idea as to why DVD Maker is no longer able to burn onto any DVD brand?
