Windows Dancer

08/30/2008 3:54 PM

Hi,

I bought the 2005 windows XP media center edition a while ago, and I just found about windows dancer. But, when I go on it, it doesn't dance when the music plays. I use windows media player v11. Following the problem, I downloaded the update from the Microsoft, but it seems to have made no difference.

What should I do to make it work?

Please help

Hello Bondy111

There may be several causes of the nondancing:

  1. You may have Security Software which prevents the Dancing mode.
  2. You may require Flash Player
  3. You may require JAVA from Sun.com
  4. Other.....

Personally I see such "dancing" as potential Security problems, and pretty gimmicks.

You are probably best to uninstal that Dancing program, if you can.

That's my opinion, for you.

Kind Regards....

  1. "You may have Security Software which prevents the Dancing mode."
