MCE 2005 Registry Recovery Message
May 16, 2007
I made the stupid mistake of running the rollup 2 application for MCE 2005. Of course an error appeared and the installation was not successful. As a result the setup program decided to restart my PC and use system restore to restore the computer back to the period prior to that accidental installation. Now everytime I either logon to a user account or logoff back to the welcome screen I get the following message:
Windows - Registry Recovery
One of the files containing the system's Registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternative copy. The recovery was successful. The only button I can click is OK - so I do so and I carry on. Under my Dad's and sister's account this message doesn't appear so often but they keep screaming at me when it does, accusing me of "tampering" with the registry when I have done no such thing...............

This system had loads of problems by the time i got it to "fix" it wont system restore - they have all been deleted, BSOD, serious error recovery every other start, viruses, spyware by the ton.Simple start would be to try a repair, if that doesnt work total reinstall as i just cant be bothered with it.Problem is the Fujitsu Siemens recovery disc when used from windows states the serial is incorrect.The sticker on the box states "Win XP Media center Edition 2005".The Fujitsu Siemens Recovery CD states "Win XP Home Edition-SP2".Now unless there is some "Trick" that im not aware of it isn't ever going to work! so Fujitsu Siemens sent the wrong disc with the system and it only now when its needed that i realise they are wrong! The system probably isn't in warranty and Fujitsu Siemens don't allow any form of Email support.

I have recently had to reinstall my PC from scratch. I bought a new WD Raptor 150GB as my main hard disk, my old 320GB Hard Disk that I used for my old install has been plugged into the second SATA port, and I have a 500GB Western Digital MyBook for extra storage and backup.Recently the new setup has been acting up worse than the old setup. These problems aren't regular but they occur in clumps -for example I would have to restart the system at least 4 times before I get a stable platformproblem includes the error message of General Host Services Has encountered an error etc along with the option to send an error report.
Sometimes its different programs that crash, including NOD 32, Media Center Receiver Service, CLI (which I think is something to do with my sound card) and other random programs including HMI, SVCHOST. When one or all of these programs crash one after the other, the entire system slows down and becomes practically inoperable. Invoking task manager doesn't help either as it takes a good 10 minutes to appear.

How well does NAV 2005 and ZoneAlarm Firewall 5.5 work together? are there any compatibility issue that i have to be aware when using this two together? and is it competely safe to mix it up? Which configuration would take system resource or drag computer performance? (NAV 2005 and ZoneAlarm Firewall 5.5) or (Norton Internet Security 2005).

My computer came with the game Otto. I can open it in Media Center. "How do I close Otto!" I use the keyboard(have no remote). When I use the mouse and press the Green Button. It says an error message and asks to "debug". I click "no". It then says "Otto not responding, you will be returned to Media Center". Then thats done but I dont know how to close it using the keyboard or mouse.

I run WindowsXP Home and after long shutdown periods (ie. overnight), the following dialogue box appears at startup:Window Registry Recovery One of the files containing the system's Registry data had to be recovered by use of a log or alternate copy. The recovery was successful.I would say this message appears 90% of the time, and so far my computer runs fine. I should also say that it started appearing after I installed NortonAV 2006 and updated Windows with SP2. I have since uninstalled Norton, but it still appears.

I have a computer that does not boot and gives the following error "Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt: WINNTSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM" So I did a goole search and brought up an article on the Microsoft Support site telling me how to start the computer using the Windows XP Home install cd and go through the Recovery Console to try the restore the backup registery. This article can be found at the following address: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=307545 just for reference.When I get into the Recovery Conbsole it does not ask me for the Administrator password or any password for that matter but I can not complete the instructions given in the article on the Microsoft Support webpage.

I keep getting these messages when I'm online telling me my registry is corrupted. These messages always try to direct me to some website (different every time) that will repair it. They start off saying "Message from SECURITY to ALERT".

Windows ME then my daughter downloaded windows XP,so she could use her IPOD as she couldn't use it with Windows ME, now nothing seems to work and I keep getting messenger service messages saying my registry is corrupt and other similar messages. I had downloaded mozilla firefox to enable me to play mahjong but I am unable to log onto mozilla since downloading the XP. Is there something I have to do to get this right.

I read something on the Windows website that says Media Center Edition 2005 has a power option called Away Mode. The settings it has are perfect for me, but it is not in my powercfg utility. Is there an extension I can download for the program to get Away Mode? Please note I'm not talking about one of the Power Schemes. I'm talking about a whole seperate power mode available that turns off the monitor, mutes the sound and slows down the graphics and CPU.

I have DirecTV and want to watch TV on my computer. I am looking for TV Tuners and they all say that it is "125-channel cable ready tuner". Does that make a difference if I can watch satellite TV through it or not? I haven't found one that says anything different.

I have had this problem before on XP Pro and never got it solved, but it is quite the nuisance. Whenever i login to XP, the login screen disappears and the computer goes to the point where it looks like its about to load the desktop, but it doesnt. it just sits there. after about a minute, it will load. the funny thing is, if it gets to this point and i hit any key on the keyboard it continues to boot all the way through without the delay.

I'm getting a really nice $2000 Dell Dimension 8400 on December 8th, and it comes with Windows Media Center 2005. Anyways, I was wondering if it had the same features of XP Pro, but with the extra media features.

So I just reformatted last night and installed Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. Since installing it, I haven't been able to restart or shut down. The computer gets stuck on the background (no icons and taskbar). I don't even get to the blue screen that says it's saving settings and shutting down. Is there something I'm missing? I'm going to try starting up the computer with nothing selected in the msconfig and see if that fixes it. I'm 99% sure the problem occurred even before I installed drivers and such, but I'm running a Dell Inspiron E1505 with ATI Mobility X1400.

Thanks to those who responded to my question on July 7th on Norton Anti-Virus 2005 acking as a firewall. There seems to be a variety of opinons on that but Norton has since then assured me that their 2005 program does indeed act as a firewall as well as an Anti-Virus software and unlike Windows XP's firewall it monitors the behavior of outgoing network traffic. The program did ask me if I wanted the "worm" feature and I agreed and it did turn off the windows firewall to avoid conflict. I asked about installing ZoneAlarm as well and was told there was no need to do that and it might also conflict with Norton

Basically I have run out of PCI slots now - I am not putting anything in PCI slot 1 as the heatsink of the X1600PRO arriving soon will overhang it making it a very tight squeeze. So my only options is a USB 2 DVB Tuner to simply receive DVB and HD Signals with AC-3 Sound. Meanwhilst I can use the Hauppage PVR-150 MCE which has the PVR plugged into its S-Video port to archive recordings from my cable PVR box into a movie file to edit out commericals later on and put onto DVD and free up the PVR so it can continue its series link!
I understand that MCE 2005 supports two TV Tuners so that 1 channel can be recorded from one tuner while another is watched from the other. However does MCE 2005 support two different brand TV Tuners (i.e. the Hauppage MCE PVR150 and a Leadtek USB 2 DVB Dongle) or do the two tuners have to be identical brand, model, etc. The Leadtek USB 2.0 is described as being compatible with MCE 2005.

it will shut off and restart itself. He claims that this has been happening close to when he received it. We had no real proof of it restarting until last night when he was actually using it and it restarted before his eyes. He is running Windows XP MCE 2005.

I've tried deselecting everything from the startup in msconfig and it still gets stuck on the background in normal mode.

I loaded QuickBooks 2005 onto my home desktop, running XP home.When I tried to run the program, it won't open. This message pops up:"Windows XP and Windows 2000 users must have Power Users or Administrato group rights in order to run QuickBooks.
Please contact your system administrator about being granted those rights."I cannot figure out how to set my computer to allow this program to open. My computer now only has 1 user set up.
