Display Driver Error - Protected Content
I have upgraded to the RTM version of Windows 7 and wanted to test out the Media Center functionality. We recently upgraded to Digital Cable and I am now experiencing a problem.

Problem: When attempting to watch a recorded program on Windows 7, I get a message on my computer in Windows Media Center: "Display Driver Error - The video playback device does not support playback of protected content." The wierd thing: The programs air just fine on my media center extenders connected to this same PC.

Another wierd thing: This worked before I upgraded to Windows 7. (Previous, this worked fine on Windows Vista Ultimate).

Any suggestions? I REALLY don't want to have to leave the home office to watch my recorded shows...

I currently am running:

Windows 7 RTM
Dell XPS420
OEM ATI Digital Cable Tuner
nVidia 8800 GTX Video Card
DELL 24 Inch monitor connected via DVI cable.
 I was also running a VGA Samsung monitor as well - but I disconnected this as well, just incase VGA was causing an issue.Jason

Weak Support For Content Search
I have been all over the internet and through the tutorials. I have searched Windows Help and I can't seem to find the answer. To be fair I am an XP user and am completely sold on Seven albut for this one problem.

I am searching for very specific strings that are contained in multiple XLS files in a single subdirectory. I know that these strings exist in a Text field in all of these files. Windows search doesn't seem to have an advanced search screen and it always fails to find any numbers. As a matter of fact it shows no hits at all.

Support DVD Playback
Will all versions of Windows 7 support DVD playback? or is it just Ultimate version? Will also all versions play DIVX and other formats?

Built-in Support For Bluray Playback / Burning
Confirmed by Mr. Sinofsky himself, there will be no native BluRay support in Windows 7. However, BluRay Drive makers and OEMs will be able to extend Windows Media Center to support playback. What will be supported in Windows 7 though, is the burning of BRD discs.

Here’s the email that was forwarded to me from our loyal reader Theodore. I did make a WHOIS check to make sure that it was Sinofsky himself. Location was indeed from: United States Redmond Microsoft Corp.

Support For AAC / M4a Files ? (gapless Playback)
I'm currently using Windows Media Center on Vista. I like it a lot; my only problem is that I encoded all my music using iTunes. It's almost all in .m4a files, containing AAC audio. Vista does not like these files at all: I had to install a codec to get them to play at all, and then another plugin to get the ID3 tags to be read properly,

and still it doesn't read the embedded album artwork. My main complaint is that I can't get gapless playback between m4a tracks. I also have some issues with compilation albums being split up into two albums with the same name when browsing in WMC.

I'm just wondering if anybody has moved an itunes library to windows 7. Does it work out of the box? Any of these issues better / worse?

I'm downloading the Windows 7 RC now to try this out myself, but if somebody answers before it finishes, it'll save me the trouble of DLing and installing it just to answer this simple question.

Standard VGA Driver Doesn't Support DVD Playback
My old ATI RADEON Mobility 7500 graphics card is not supported in/under Windows7, so I use the rather fine MS-provided Standard VGA driver.

Unfortunately this approach doesn't support DVD playback in Windows Media Player: Each time I insert a DVD and WMP starts playing I get an error message that analog copyright protection is nott supported by the driver.

Now: Can't the Standard VGA driver be corrected/extended thus that it would allow/support DVD playback? It's entirely up to MS (e.g. to lock the VGA output during DVD playback) from my point of view ..

Multiple Display Swapping Support
On one of our workstations we were able to successfully install Windows 7, it is excellent, however there is a feature missing from the Display properties that was available in Vista.

We need the ability to swap monitors assignments. Vista had an option to select which monitor was on the left, and which monitor was on the right.

We have a 24 inch HP monitor we use as the main monitor on the right, and a 19inch Samsung monitor we use as a secondary on the left.

While Win 7 does give the ability to choose which is the primary, it does not allow us to select which monitor is on the right or left of the other.

Unfortunately Win 7 has detected the HP as the left monitor. With the desktop setup it's not a matter of just switching the physical placement of the monitors. We need the ability to select position as it was offered in our previous setup.

Until we find a way to swap them, we will continue of course to use the RC, but hope this will be addressed in one of the service update releases before Win7 goes RTM.

If anyone has seen a solution to this issue outside of 3rd party software such as ultramon, we would be interested in hearing from you.

Terminal Services Windows Won't Support A Second Display
Using build 7000, I've had the same result using the Citrix Web Interface to access a Server 2003 and the TS Web Access interface to access a Server 2008 box (no Citrix). In both scenarios, the session windows will only operate in the primary display.

They will not maximize to fill both displays and they cannot be dragged between displays (the edge disappears as though the app were being pulled off-screen). I have an NVIDIA Quadro NVS 135M adapter, and have had the same results with driver prerelease - WDDM 1.1 and the one before that.

If it's relevant, I'm using a Dell Latitude D630 with 4 GB RAM.On XP and Vista I didn't have this problem.I've tried a variety of settings in the nView Desktop Manager - including turning it off; no change. This is not a serious problem, but it would be nice to run my apps in my secondary display, which is much larger than the notebook's.

Intel 82945G Drivers / Support For Independent Dual Display
I can not seem to find a way to engage the Intel 82945G chipset in dual independent display mode, which worked natively in Vista.

I have tried installing the Windows 7 Beta:

As a fresh 32bit installation
As a fresh 64bit installation, and As an upgrade to Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit version. where the display was fully functioning in dual mode.

It seems none of the publicly available drivers for Intel 82945G integrated graphics chip that are Windows 7 compatible support the independent multi monitor mode. this includes:

The Windows 7 Beta drivers supplied natively by the Microsoft install, The latest downloadable drivers from Intel: v7.14.10.1504), This is quite disappointing, as the native drivers used by Windows Vista, support dual independent displays, SEAMLESSLY. It appears as if this shortcoming has to do with WDDM 1.0 support vs. WDDM 1.1, although it isn't entirely clear to me if this is the case.

SDVO (Serial Digital Video Out) or ADD2 Dual-Display Expansion Card in the PCI-Express slot
1600x1200 capable Viewsonic P95f+ CRT using 15pin VGA Cable
1680x1050 LCD widescreen using DVI Cable

Please let me know if drivers (even beta or non-public versions) are available that support independent dual display mode, or if there is some way to enable the previous generation Vista drivers to manage the graphics shics chipset such that it supports independent dual displays.

Bluetooth Streaming Sound Playback Error
I have recently begun using Windows 7. Previously I was using Vista Home Premium.

I have a Belkin Bluetooth adapter F8T016 and used to stream music to a bluetooth speaker.

Since installing Windows 7 I cannot stream the music. Initially my Broadcom driver would not connect to the speaker. I therefore installed the Anycom Bluetooth USB2 Vista driver as suggested in this thread:

Belkin F8T016 Mini-USB Bluetooth Dongle

Now my laptop and speaker connect properly (I can see it is connected in the bluetooth property settings and physically through the 'connected' LED on the speaker.

My problem now is that the device will not playback sound. When I try to perform the 'test' in the audio device properties I get the message "Error: Cannot perform test sound".

Running A 4/6 Screen Environment
Basically my question is, what's the best way of running a 4/6 screen windows 7 environment?

The detailed question is:-

I've just got a Dell XPS 8000 with a Nvidia GT 220 in it.

I'd like to run at least 4 19 inch screens. On my previous system (XP Pro 64 bit) I added a second PCI graphics card, which allowed me to run the 4 screens.

It's not for gaming, it's for developing, so I just need a lot of desktop real estate, more than 3D rendering power.

(Btw, I went for win 7 pro, due to the XP Pro Virtual machine, allowing me to run the 32bit cisco VPN client I need, in a 64 bit environment).

I installed the old PCI card I had a Nvidia GeForce FX 5200, but this seems to cause an issue with the GT220 card and the device manager reports it's stopped working (error code 43. I've googled it, seems a pretty generic error code, from what I can tell I think it's installing xddm drivers, which is the problem with wddm driver needed). I remove the card it BSOD's windows is unable to repair it, and I have to go back to a system restore point.

I see I have 2 spare PCIe x1 slots and a PCI slot on my motherboard.

Any suggestions?

Ideas I've toyed with are

1. Buy a PCIe x1 graphics card, possibly a quad card(but which one, nvidia or non nvidia)

2. Buy another PCI Graphics card,possibly a quad card( again which one? )

3. Can I spilt the HDMI and DVI outputs to give me 4 screens of 1280x1024. (or even 3 screens)

4. Scrap the GT 220, buy a PCI x16 card, then get another dual PCIe x1 card.(going to be very expensive I think).

Media Center Playback Stopped Working With Encoder Error
I have been using Windows 7 Media Center for my HTPC for a month or so and everything was working fairly well. A little stuttering on playbacks which I haven't determined the cause of yet. But the real problem that started yesterday is playbacks have stopped working completely. 

When I attempt to playback a recorded tv show I get an error stating the encoder has stopped functioning or is not loaded and to restart media center or the computer. I've done both to no avail. I found an update on MS but when I tried to install it reported that I already have the update. I'm at a loss and wanted to see if anyone had any ideas on how to recover from this.

Bluetooth In A Win 7 Multi-boot Environment
I have a multi-boot environment with a bluetooth keyboard and bluetooth mouse.Windows 7 does not allow you to pair the keyboard and the mouse in multiple environments with the same pairing code.I used to be able to do this with Windows XP and Windows Vista.The only solution that I can identify is to either:Re-pair the mouse and keyboard every time you change your bootup session choice. or Use multiple keyboards and mice... one keyboard and mouse for each boot environment...

seperately paired.You used to be able to disable the pairing code requirement for a deviceor Manually specify the pairing code used on both sides of the pairingYou cannot do this in Windows 7... or if you can I have not found out how to do it.Do you know of a way to use a single bluetooth keyboard and mouse in a multi-boot environment? orDo you know when Microsoft will correct their bluetooth drivers to allow this (like they used to)?

Logically Insists It Is On The C Drive In Triple Boot Environment
Windows Vista Home Premium (32 bit) was installed on Disk 0 Partition 2 and became the E Drive. The set up looked like this from either operating system (i did not manually allocate any drive letters).

Disk 0 Part 1 C Drive (Windows XP) (Primary Partition)

Disk 0 Part 2 E Drive (Windows Vista) (Logical Partition)

Disk 0 Part 3 F Drive (Spare) (Logical Partition)

Disk 1 Part 1 D Drive (Spare) (Primary Partition)

Disk 1 Part 2 G Drive (Spare) (Primary Partition)

Disk 1 Part 3 H Drive (Acronis Secure Zone) (Primary Partition)

I have tried to install Windows 7 (64 bit) to both Disk 1 Part 1 and Disk 1 Part 2. In each case it has installed successfully on the specified partition. When I boot into Windows 7 it appears as Drive C. It works quite happily like this. If I boot into XP or Vista the Drive layout remains as above with the Windows 7 files appearing in either Drive D or Drive G depending on where I installed it to. When I boot into Windows 7 the Drive layout appears as below:

Windows 7 installed to Disk 1 Part 1:

Disk 0 Part 1 not allocated a letter (Windows XP)

Disk 0 Part 2 D Drive (Windows Vista)

Disk 0 Part 3 E Drive (Spare)

Disk 1 Part 1 C Drive (Windows 7)

Disk 1 Part 2 F Drive (Spare)

Disk 1 Part 3 G Drive (Acronis Secure Zone)


Windows 7 installed to Disk 1 Part 2:

Disk 0 Part 1 not allocated a letter (Windows XP)

Disk 0 Part 2 D Drive (Windows Vista)

Disk 0 Part 3 E Drive (Spare)

Disk 1 Part 1 F Drive (Spare 7)

Disk 1 Part 2 C Drive (Windows 7)

Disk 1 Part 3 G Drive (Acronis Secure Zone)

(The drive letters may have been 'E' - D0 P2, 'F' - D0 P3 and 'D' - D1 P1 but I forgot to write them down and can't stand the thought of reinstalling Windows 7 yet again)

In each case Windows 7 has decided that it is logically on Drive C, the Windows XP partition is ignored and all other drive letters are then assigned in ascending sequence. As it has decided that it is on Drive C and the registry entries reflect the same it works quite normally.

From within Windows 7, the Windows XP partition can be allocated a Drive letter in the 'Disc Management (Local)' window and can the be accessed quite normally.

I could probably get around this by taking disc images of the XP and Vista installations, play around with various combinations until I get it to install as Drive D and then restore the previous images. However, thats a lot of time so I'll keep it as it is for the time being.

Anybody got any other ideas?

Write Protected Drive
I am running Windows 7 Pro x64, which I have recently reinstalled due to my system drive  dying irrecoverably recently.  Since reinstalling I have been experiencing a problem where I am given error messages such as "Access is denied", etc when trying to write a file.

This happens sometimes on my RAID 5 drive which I use as a secondary drive (three 500GB SATA drives set up into a RAID 5 for 1TB of disk space, using MB drivers for RAID), and sometimes on my system disk (320 GB disk just bought when my other drive failed) which is set up in a single disk JBOD (because of RAID setup limitations). 

I have attempted each and every possible solution for that I have found, most relevantly from this post: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/itprovistasetup/thread/c6c6edc0-f7e4-42f1-a376-cfad751f2357 I have tried the diskpart, and the "fsutil resource setautoreset true x:", neither of which give errors (they both say they completed successfully) but don't actually help. 

I have only tried the "fsutil volume dismount x:" on my system drive (resulting in an "Error: Access is denied") due to the fact that since finding that suggestion I have not had my secondary (RAID) drive lock up.  The next time it does, I will attempt that solution and give feedback on it here.

I had Windows 7 RC installed at least half a year ago and it had similar issues, though it only affected the RAID drive. I installed Windows 7 Pro (the release) in August when I got it from the MSDNAA program, and it had not shown any of these problems until I had to reinstall due to my old system disk dying.

My system is custom built, the motherboard is a Foxconn A7DA-S. I have a multi-core (can't remember atm if it's dual or quad) Phenom processor by AMD. I have 8 GB of RAM installed. I believe all drivers are current. If you need more information please ask. This issue is becoming increasingly difficult to live with and I would like to get it resolved as soon as possible.

USB Drives Write Protected
I have been using a seagate 1TB drive on a vantec dock. All of a sudden the drive has started appearing write protected and I cannot add or delete any files on the drive. This is very surprising as I haven't found any answer as to how can I remove the write protect thing and use my drive normally. This problem has many answers for windows XP but cant really google an answer for Win 7 ultimate.

Hard Disks Write Protected After Upgrade
After upgrading form Vista ult to Windows 7 ultimate (without any problems), all my harddisks are now write protected except the system harddisk. I have an Asus P5K Pro motherboard with two WD SATA 1TB harddisks (configured as two separate disks, no RAID) and 4 USB harddisks (1TB and 3x 500GB).

I have tried to take ownership but that did not help (medium write protected error). I et the readonly values on disks and volumes with the diskpart utility to 0, but no results.

If I connect teh USB drive tot my laptop, I CAN write to it, but when connected to my desktop computer, it fails to write any data.

I have no clue. I can read the disks but I cant write to it. I had never any problem with write acces to my harddisk with Vista. What is the problem, how can I fix it. I don;t want to do a clean install !

Upgrade Disk Content
If I get Win 7 Professional Upgrade disk, does it contain the other versions of the OS as well? Or is specific to whatever version you get? For example, with my Win 7 Profession Upgrade disk I want to upgrade my sister's Home Basic laptop to Win 7 Starter/Home Premium and my parent's Home Premium to Win 7 Home Premium. Would I be able to this with my one disk?

Would I be able to use a Full version of Win 7 to upgrade any exiting computer using their Keys?

Nero 9 Recode Could Not Open Mpg: File Is DRM Protected
for converting mpg videos made by my PVR (VDR) i use Nero 9 Recode to convert it to MP4, H246 AVC.

No problems I had by using it with XP and Vista. Since i use Nero at Version 6 i think its the fastes converter i know.

With Win7RC (and also Win7Beta) Recode could not import a selvmade mpg-file, telling that this file is DRM-protected. Selvmade MP4's or AVI's open with no problems.

The DRM-Napster-Cleaner did not help.
