It was working fine, then something happened. Now as soon as I drag even a short video onto a blank DVD a message pops up that I don't have enough space
View 5 Replies View RelatedI recently upgraded to windows 7 on all 3 of my home computers and i am loving it so far.There is 1 problem i can't solve myself and it has to do with my home server freezing up whenever another computer in my home network stream a dvd (or sometime even a small divx) movie from it.Strange thing is, the same setup worked flawlessly when i had vista on all my computers so that rules out that its any hardware issue (maybe a driver issue from nic or something?) PC1 where i think the problem is.My main computer with al the media on it im going refer to as server, this pc has Win 7 Ultimate x64 installed on it, intel core2duo E6850 @3,0Ghz, 4 gigs DDR2 memory and an Asus P5K motherboard.All my media is on a shared drive on this pc and all other pc's can access it through my home network. PC2 the one i use to watch movies.My 2nd pc is in the livingroom and hooked up to my flatpannel tv, this pc ill refer to as my mediacenter.This pc has windows 7 ultimate x32 installed. It has an Intel Pentium 4 3.4 CPU, 2 gigs DDR2 memory and an Abit AB9 Quad GT motherboard. My network settings.My home network is completely wired (no wireless devices whatsoever) and all connected through a netgear FVG318 Router. There is no password on sharing and every setting in my home network is set to share everything with all others in my network, so all if freely accessible.As said all my media is hosted on my server computer, there are DVD's divx movies and some music and pictures.Whenever i try to watch a DVD on my mediacenter the movie freezes, sometimes already in the titlescreen but also sometimes 5, 10 or even 30 minutes into the movie. The freezes are completely random i guess.The mediacenter workes fine after a freeze, only error i get is that it cannot connect to my server.When i goto my server i at first noticed that my network connection was lost on my server.After some trial and error i found out when i disable my networkcard on the server and after enabled it agian i could continue watching my movie on the mediacenter but it the freeze kept happening.Then i thought it might be a power save setting so i made a powersave scheme where nothing turns off, no hibernation and not even the display turns off.Also i changed some setting in the network card on my server telling it that it could not be turned off to save power.After all this done when i watch a DVD now on my mediacenter my whole server just freezes after a while.I still see the desktop screen and my mouse mointer but i cant move it, no error msge its just a frozen screen.I also browser my system logs and looked for errors around the time the freezes occur but i cant find anything related. the only errors i see are after the system halted.The log stated the system has been shut down unexpecedly (couse i pressed the off button) and after it restarts i see i couple of performance index errors (WmiApRpl).
View 5 Replies View RelatedMy C: drive only has 45.4GB TOTAL. While I have two other drives, D(has 2TB) and E(has 500GB). My problem is, everything is installing into C drive automatically. How do I change this?
- I tried switching the drive letters but there's always the "Parameter is incorrect" error(probably because they run the computer).
-Tried going to regedit and editing microsoftwindowscurrentversionprogramfilesdir (also tried editing other files but I attempted to install a program, did not change the installation directory)What do I do? I can't install any program that automatically installs into C drive (for example skype).
I've seen this somewhere, but I can't for the life of me find it again. There is a way of setting only certain remotes to work with certain PCs so they don't interfere with others. I have my HTPC and laptop in the same room, both with IR receivers - whenever I use the remote for my PC, the laptop ends up with all the signals too, and I come back to find it's playing a video or something.
Does anyone here know where that tutorial/registry setting is to change remote control channels?
I just did a fresh install of Windows 7 Professional on a 60GB OCZ Vertex 3 and the drive is down to a remaining 15GB out of 55.7 total available space. This is confusing because my last several installs of the exact same OS on the exact same size drives took up much less space. Even after installing several programs like Photoshop and Office, I still had 24GB to spare on my last install with a 60GB Agility 2.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently bought a new cisco e2000 router and had no problem connecting to it on all the devices in the house (about 10 of them)Just now, all the devices in my room (ipod, netbook, phone, and laptop) lost a connection to the router and no matter where I am in the house none of these 4 devices can get a connection. I can see other networks, just not mine. They all worked perfectly fine before, and out of nowhere they stopped working. Other devices that were not in my room at the time of this 'wifi surge' still have a connection to the router.The wired connection works and that's how I'm typing this right now.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI just cleaned my laptop and it released a lot of dust, so my temperature is lower. The weather is currently very, very, very hot and my laptop is running 55-60C normally when i browse the internet, in a very hot room. Before i cleaned it - it was very hotter. I'm even sweating and i don't wear a shirt. But that's not the point. I i am running prime95 to test the processor, and after 1 minute of 100% usage it gets to 90C in the hot room again. But when i go to a clearly cold room, it doesn't turn off, it barely reaches 80-85C but never the maximum 90C.are the fans not spinning correctly or is the room temperature really important for a laptop?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI will try to be as descriptive as possible. I currently have GoWifi to access my internet (my room mate has it to)But for the past 4 days my computer has been running horribly slow. I can't use a enthernet cable becuase "Gowifi" is only wireless. I use google chrome most of the time, but the internet is slow on chrome and explorer. I have tried the "ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew" method. I have also tried to Reset WINSOCK, Reset IPv4, Reset IPv6, and then restarted my computer but still did not do the trick. I have tried various things from forums on other sites and this site but it still is not doing the trick.Is there Anything you guys could tell me that could fix my problem? And i do have a windows 7 computer.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am asking this question about a netbook we have so the stats that are connected to my profile are about my PC and are irrelevent for this question On the netbook, With Windows 7 (most basic edition. BTW, do urself a favor and never buy a netbook),we have 2 drives named:
C: WINDOWS
D: Data
116 GB on each.
C: Has become full, so i connected my cam, while it was importing i clicked on Import Settings and changed the destination to D:/new folder. Then the import restarted itself, and started importing, but then the same pop up message came up and said "Not enough room on C:". OK man i know, but ur supposed to import into D: .
Reconnected cam, happened again.Seems like the computer is INSISTING that i import into c: . Maybe D: isnt meant for personal media, which is annoying?
