I checked out the vista rc2 and found some errors in it. when you try to listen to a song in a folder you get a error message in microsoft media player. if you try to play it in the media center you get a simular error. it would be strange if it was a codec that was missing because the songs are MP3 files. I hope this problem will be fixed.

I am running RC1. Runs perfectly with all my major programs. I stumbled onto Windows DVD Maker. Sleek, clean, fast. Nice job!!... until I actually tried to burn my video DVD. I keep getting a "Please insert a writeable DVD Disc" error, even though my burner works correctly, and there IS a writeable, blank, new, proper DVD in the drive. Any suggestions? H e l l l p !

When accessing the WMP 11 library tab, it displays the following message ' There are no items in this library yet - the Player is searching for digital media files in the background.' However, despite having circa 15,000 ripped tracks on the HDD, it does not seem to ever find anything. Any ideas why not?

However, ,with...

In Vista Beta 2 there was an option to direct sound from different programs through different sound cards - eg I could set my surround sound card as the default for movies but just use my motherboard onboard sound for music and applications sounds. Where has this option gone in RC1? Another issue I'm having: no matter which of my sound cards I try to use, I can't get sound from DVD's or some...

System Requirements for RealTime 1080p video editing and Vista Ultimate? Can a Vista Ready computer handle Vista Ultimate? When will Vista Ultimate be available? This system will be around for at least 5 years, and 1080p is the magic number for both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD. I would like a PC recommendation that can handle the load, unfortunately I cannot wait due to the early demise of my last...

That means, I just need to double click on the execute file (Test.exe), and the program can do "Set"...

I have seen several posts on this without solution and I worked with MSN support for over an hour today and still cannot get it fixed. Running RTM build of Vista Ultimate (build 6000). Clean install. Moved all my music files over. When I try and acquire the license for the MSN Music files, it just hangs and will never acquire the license. Has anyone else seen this?

I have installed IE7. I have embedded videos from YouTube on my website, and now they no longer appear on this computer. They work fine from my other computers. What do I do?

In the past week I noticed that Media Player 11 - which was working fine until now - is starting to choke and freeze up the playing of any WMV file. I'm running an Athlon 2500 with 1 gig memory & a 256 Meg NVidia 9600 card. Anyone else experience the same problem?

Hi, I'm using Vista RC2 (Build 5744) as a 'MC only' with an nVidia GeForce 7600GS, a VistaView Saber2020 PCI-E TV Tunercard. Further my computer is equipped with an Intel P4 (Prescott) 2.8Ghz, 1.5GB internal memory and a Samsung SP2504C harddisk. System running perfectly with a score of 4.2 but somehow I get the impression that the Video Acceleration is not working or not working properly....
