No idea how, but... and, Key Error

Post by oneadem »

Gang,

I was having the following problems with my newly-downloaded and purchased Movie Factory 4: wouldn't recognize my Hauppauge WinTV UPS driver; the Ulead driver patch for Hauppauge couldn't see that I had MF4 installed; I couldn't import MPG video files; I received a "Key Error" when I opened MovieFactory 4.

I don't know why, but after uninstalling and re-downloading and reinstalling MF4 and it;s various patches, rebooting after each new element was added, all of the above problems except for the "Key Error" message at program startup are now gone. I can use MPGs and my WinTV USB with no problem (so far)

The "Key Error" is at present more of an annoyance than anything, as it appears every tome I restart MF4. But the program does start after closing the error message so I guess I can live with it. But I would like to make it go away if anyone has a tip.

Bill

sounds like a Registry Key error:

Try checking your Windows XP error messages
If you have "my computer" displayed on your desktop
right click "my computer"
manage
expand "Event Viewer"
now look at the error messages in
1. Application
2. System

Look for items with a red circle and white X inside.
Double click the error. Double click the blue link which should give you some guidance about the error found.
