SP3 probably won't be out for a while. |

I'm not sure but cam Service Pack 2 cause that problem? Because when I installed Media Center 2005, it asked me for the SP2 but I didn't have. The odd thing is, that Windows says it's installed.  I really need help and would the SP3 fix the problem? |

Well, that's what I did, but these services still don't start.  |

try this, go Start -> run -> Services.msc
then all the services that you usually have to start manually, make sure under startup type, its at automatic, not manual, this should make them start automatically. to change it, just double click on it, and set the startup type to automatic...if they are on automatic and wont start up, im not really sure what the problem is then... |

Well, I installed Media Center Edition 2005 yesterday and got lots of problems but most of them are fixed already except this, some services won't start after I restart my computer. I.e. the theme service doesn't start, the Network Connection doesn't start, the DNS Host doesn't start and some other ones. I have to start them each to Windows starts, but it annoys me as hell. Does someone know how to auto start those services without going into the Control Panel - > Administrative Tools -> Services and start them manually? Thanks in advance. |
