View 17 RepliesI'm writing a C++ program that plays an mp3 playlist via the command line.Is there a way to run media player in a single line command if you're in a different directory than media player is located? Media player is located in "C:Program FilesWindows Media Playerwmplayer.exe".Say I was in the directory C:Documents And Settings (or any other directory but the wmplayer one..)Is there a way to run media player in a single command if i'm not in C:Program FilesWindows Media Player? When I try windows yells at me because of the space in "Program Files". Obviously I could change to the directory first, and then type wmplayer.exe, but I want to be able to do it without actually changing to the directory wmplayer.exe is in.

Also there is problem with my internet explorer. The Javascript is not working IE. The javascript option is enabled in internet options. On Experts advise from forums I tried registering javscript dll but it fails to register. I think due to some related problem with this the the texts typing in Yahoo mesenger is also not visible.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI have problem with my videos. They are stored on my external hard drive and when i open the file where they are located windows says it needs to close the program. I never had a problem playing them in wmp before and i have restored my computer to an earlier date with the same results. I also have tried different media players and the only one that seems to play or view any videos is vlc. Most of the videos are avi but there are some mpg4. I'm also not able to burn dvd's.
Somehow the line that you put web sites -- after the http --has disappeared. I'm sure that there's a simple way to get it back but I'm new to WIN XP.

I was guessing it was a video card issue but everything else runs just fine,my drivers are updated to the newest version all I can do is scratch my head and ponder.

View 13 Replies View RelatedAs per advice received here, I would like to create a Recovery CD including SP2 and all more recent updates received from Microsoft. However, it appears that you may not be able to do so unless you have an XP Operating System CD. Most computers come without such a creature unfortunately and neither of my systems have them.
Is it possible to create such a Recovery disk using the OS Recovery CD which came with my Compaq/HP laptop?Or else, is it possible to copy just the SP2 plus all other Microsoft downloads without having to manually execute each and every file?
I have a problem viewing videos as the first time in viewing, it is . It's extremely frustrating.
View 12 Replies View Relatedany hulu/Internet/etc. streaming content type videos, even on the lowest hd setting (288p, for ex.) just ends up being choppy, worst in full screen. here are my specs:
amd athlon xp 2600+ cpu
1.0 gig of ram
pny geforce fx5200 256 mb pci graphics card
windows xp home ed. w/sp3
160 gb hd
an older computer with an older processor, and if anything, it's probably the cpu that is preventing me from having normal playback with streaming content. i had a laptop with a core duo processor that worked fine with this type of video, but i fried it so i am stuck with this for now. haven't used this pc in a few years so now i am noticing it's limitations as far as this stuff goes. if anyone has had any luck with an older machine getting relatively normal playback with these streams. i have tried reducing hardware acceleration, drivers are fully updated for graphics card, hard drive is formatted so no viri are causing this, reinstalling flash, changing settings on monitor, and playback is the same.
how do i do it without upgrading my broadband subscription bandwidth/speed currently at 256k download? i watch streaming movies from netflix which currently re-buffers about every 15 minutes and takes about 8 minutes to buffer the next segment before resuming movie play.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Windows XP Home Edition every time i start the pc it says: Error loading :WindowsSystem32cafcleac.dll which I promptly just ignore. My hard drive is only 5 gigabytes big so it gets full quite fast. I used to be okay with it but now I can't watch any streaming stuff without a low memory bubble message and it stopping all streaming stuff. I fluctuate between 170 to 0 mb of memory space. I tried to run the thing to clean up more space but it just stays stuck on two green bars indefinitely and errors out. I tried to uninstall some software on add/remove programs but there are no "uninstall" buttons on most of my stuff. The best I can do is erase cookies which is annoying at best since it only opens up about 5 mb.

View 11 Replies View RelatedHaving recently had someone else using my computer for a while, installing various software (like winamp and SubEdit player) it seems windows media player (that's what I use) no longer recognises the usual files as media files like .mp3 .wmv .m3u .avi etc etc so when I click open file and select "media files (all types)" in the file type box it shows nothing, so I have to change it to all files which is irritating. Media player still plays everything fine but this is pretty annoying.

View 5 Replies View RelatedSince installing SP3 my media centre will not open although the rest of XP runs fine. I get a report 'Strong name validation failed for assembly 'C:Windowsehomeehshell.exe. The file may have been tampered with or it was partially signed but not fully signed with the correct private key.I have the original installation disk from Dell, but it won't recognise the key that came with the pc to re install it. Is there any way I can repair the file in question. I have tried uninstalling sp3, and using the recovery program, but nothing is working to make it work again.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI own a Dell M1710 XPS laptop with a SigmaTel High Definition Audio CODEC card that was shipped with Vista Home Premium installed on it. I had this same problem already while Vista was my OS and actually managed to find a work-around to solve the problem;however it caused more. The mini sub-woofer stopped working and there was a noticeable decrease in sound quality. And at times sound stopped emitting altogether.due to complications with Vista, I was forced to reformat my computer.I have noticed a great increase in FPS in all my games and overall snappy-ness navigating through windows. my Line-In option is shown in all sound applications, but it does not work. I wanted to record videos of my games, and it works (Finally!!!) But no sound.

I run 2 RDC sessions from my WIN 2000 PC and I would liek to create 2 shortcuts which load the RDP settings with userand passwords.
I didn't make a wise decision. I used a clean up program called ET Remover and it was going to remove something from the registry. But when it tried to, it didn't work saying that it was being used by another program. So I went into the registry and took it out. Dumb.I'm not completely sure if that's why I have this problem, but it seems like a likely candidate. Under my taskbar there is a line which is not supposed to be there. I took a picture of it with my camera because it wouldn't show up in print screen. Made it red so it was easy to see in the picture. It has a shaking like effect. If I open a window of something and move it around I can see it moving in the bottom space. I also have a program called windows blinds, but I dont think that's the problem. It's not the monitor either. I ran a symantec scan, but I really doubt that could be it. I also tried a system restore to no avial.

View 2 Replies View RelatedJust built up a new computer. Installed Windows XP Home SP3. Installed fine but couldn't get online. Found out I needed to install the drivers from the motherboard install disk. It installs the drivers but then it has to reboot to finish. When it reboots it goes to a command line promt to make a raid disk. Problem is that I don't have a floppy disk drive in the computer. (Come on, I didn't think ppl even used em anymore.) If I try to take the CD out and run windows, It gets to the XP load up screen then restarts. Unless I run it in safe mode. My question is this:Is there a command i can use in that prompt to save the Raid Disk info to another drive or port. Like a USB port or External Floppy Drive?
