Windows XP, error message!! Media Center TV don't work now, etc.. Error message pops up all the time!!! After I loaded a RipTiger software, had to unistall but still left with this pop up message!!! Media Center Receiver Service has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Do I need to unistall Media Center?? If yes, how?? If no need to unistall, how to fix corrupted file of Media Center for XP.

I have the same problem.

Sounds like the driver for the TV Tuner is not installed, or the video and audio drivers may not be installed properly.
Mine was always a bit wonky in XP, works like a charm in Vista or Windows 7 though

Try to burn your programs using a different burning software like nero or etc.

Okay, Media center does not work with some Wintv HVR's yet it will work with the software it came with and sometimes media center will use the wintv software to make it work but its sketchy. If you want a more media center compatiable card look at www.microsoft.com website they have a list of media center compatable Tv tuner cards, Trust me I am having the same problem with my tuner card now and its not wintv its a RCA and its under windows 7 this is just the thing here not all card work with media center.

Try reinstall windows. If this doesn't work you might have a conflict with your tv-tuner

install all updates for media center or even better download tv pack 2008and install that

When that happens you usually need to backup your data, and reinstall the system to fix Windows corrupted files.

Try first doing a system restore to the most recent date before you started having the problem. If system files are damaged this will not help.

Well I would think back to when you started having the Media center problems, and did you make ANY new software installs just before the problem started? If so remove the newly installed program, or try to use "System Restore" to restore your system to a time just before you started having the problems. If this does not work, please post the EXACT wording of the error, eg: "fault in module..." "called from...." or make a screen capture or the error window expanded with all info showing.
