I think Microsoft suck at making operating systems. They never work properly. If there was another operating system that had the same market we would all use that! Microsoft are crap!

I have a Dell inspiron with media center, everytime I open MCE a message indicating that media center does to find windows messenger on this computer. I have done all the suggested clues of while using MCE to press more information on the remote control and to select messenger and type you email and password……….etc. The problem is when I press more programs, windows messenger is not there. Is there any solution to this issue.

I have a problem viewing my project when I am in project mode. If the windows movie maker thinks I have too many fades/transitions it will simply not allow me to play the movie. I have to “make movie” saving it to my computer then I can watch it. It also does this if it thinks I have too many clips. I can not view my movie until I have already saved it as a movie which is a huge problem. Is there anything I can do? Thanks.

I seem to have a very strange problem and can’t find any help searching the web. My Media center will open fine and when I scroll around everything usually works, except when I try certain funtions like “my internet” in media center and when trying to shut it off. It will make my screen go crazy and completly distorted. Now the mouse still moves around and things seem to keep working, but my screen is gone to hell and I end up doing a hard restart just to get out of it. I have not seen this before with anything else on my pc and according to my research, I have all the updates and such. This pc came with the media center resource cd and trying to reinstall my opertating system won’t fix it. Anyone know what might be cause WMC to completly freak out like that?

I have tried repeatedly to use the Media Center, changed my profile and jumped through hoops, all to no avail.
