DVR-MS Edit - XP SP2, PowerDirector3 Err
On a machine running XP SP2, PowerDirector 3 brings back an error when even trying to open a DVR-MS file. It states I must install a MS patch, located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=fb4c2c2e-60ea-4ed9-bc68-e93c9e65c58e&displaylang=en
Note that it says the patch is for SP1. I'm at SP2. When you try and install this patch in SP2, it says my SP version is wrong and it cannot be installed.
Without this patch being installed, PowerDirector will not open DVR-MS files.
I want a solution to this problem, even if it's a workaround. Cyberlink does not have any information about this error, and all the searching I've done has turned up other people complaining of the same problem - with no solution. I want to be able to use this application.
I am NOT interested in using any other utilities instead. I am aware thegreenbutton.net has freeware utilities - but they do not work reliably, if at all. (at least for me)
I got the points if you got the solution.
