I have windows XP media center edition for a long time now my media center will not work right ?

Question

I think I might have deleted something for it . It Blinks on and off a black screen and moves so slow. and now I can't burn anything off of it I have looked up how to fix this thing and it's so hard to understand If I try to download something thats going to fix it it never works I have tried reinstalling the things that came with my computer.

Answer 1

I would try running a chkdsk to find and fix bad spots on your hard drive. Download Bart PE and create a boot CD. Boot from it, then select "storage", then "run chkdsk".

After that, I would do a Windows repair install.

If that doesn't fix the problems, back up the data then do a format and fresh install.

Good luck
