VMC is freezing, crashing multiple times a day yet does work, but I need help

Hey
I am here seeking help.:cry: I have googled regarding whether the VMC can be re-installed (hoping to fix things) but from what I've read that option doesnt' exist.

Background: A few months ago, Media Center began having (hiccups & freezes and occassionally would crash)... From time to time ever since install it has done this, but never so frequently and NOW repeatable. I believe this started after downloading & installing Windows updates, some months back. These things have a way of creeping up on me & so at this point I don't think System restore is an option.
Other issues I just fixed a Windows Search Protocal stopped working error.

Here's what I experience: Generally Media Center starts and will record & let me watch programs, however It crashes repeatedly throughout. Some times it crashes itself & "searching for a solution" ...send more data etc, restarting happens. Some times the crashes will happen back to back to back.
IF I am watching a program or watching tv, or something I'm simultaneously recording if I go into the upcoming shows about 50% of the time if I hit the record button to add that show to an upcoming record que, the system freezes. Most of the time when it does this it will crash & restart. Other times it will sit there for a LONG time? Sometimes I'm forced to Ctrl-Alt-Del to end the program.

In the past I didn't have any problem going into the settings and editing channel information such as enabling channels, renumbering, or setting up the channel information...but NOW. This will freeze up for example if I click to enable or disable a channel and then click save....the system freezes. Again sometimes after a LONG wait it'll recover other times I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL.
It's made managing channels an impossible tast.

I can access my event logs and post anything requested here; I can't find any ANSWERS from that information (myself) only notes of what is crashing, I've all along used the built in reporting & check for solutions in control panel YET NO SUGGESTIONS OR HELP!!!:mad:

I have gone through the setup process of VMC and this did complete but it froze a few times, but the end result was no change!!! Within a few moments of running MC it crashed, gather & sent additional information, & restarted Media Center.

I have run sfc /scannow 3 times over the last few months including just the other day... It finds NO PROBLEMS:confused:
I've run the Microsoft One live care (think that's what it's called) and it found about 68 registry entries, so I let it do it's clean up & it deleted 60 of them & found errors with 8 of them. IDK if the errors have anything to do with my MC problems. But no difference after the "cleaning" and that other than some temporary files was all that One live care reported.

I'd like not to have to start over (the last time I imaged the system was just after installation about 11 months ago.

My Original DVD is SP1 so IDK if there will be an issue with a "Repair" installation & I need a refresher on whether that will damage my data (i know best always to back up in case but I'm just wondering It been too long since I did one & even then it was with XP). I dont' even know if there are more repair options in Vista... or just a repair installation like XP. OR if there are some better, things to try before hand.

ALSO THERE WERE A LOT OF Microsoft Windows Search Protocol Host (28) entries...
But I believe I have solved this issue. First by un-successfully rebuilding the index, then ultimately by changing the registry setting from (1) to (0) which forces it to completely rebuild...since then the errors have stopped. HOWEVER, I have read A LOT of reports about how since downloading the Search ? 4.0 update others systems (various programs have acted slowly or crashed...the only solution in those cases is to go into services and disable Search all together. 
I have NOT as of yet tried this.

Re: Repair Install For Vista

"IF YOU HAVE THE VISTA SP2 INSTALLED:
This will not work if you have SP1 and SP2 installed unless your Vista installation DVD includes SP2.
Be sure to backup any important data you have, just in case something goes wrong during installation. You may need to reinstall some of your drivers. You do not want to do this if you are dual booting with XP and Vista was not installed as the primary boot drive. It can cause XP to not startup anymore."

Hey Brink I hope you are still here. I began having some significant problems with Vista/Media Center a few months back. Things keep progressing to the point that now besides, crashes hangs etc. I can no longer get the EPG to update. It is trying to but it's not able.
Other maybe relevant (maybe not). Windows Search was giving me an error for about a month before I found the answer to edit the registry & have it completely rebuild the index. And IE 8 is slow sluggish and hangs a lot. (while Firefox/google chrome have been un-affected).

I have run Windows Live Care scan and followed cleaning out temporary files and allowed it to do the suggested registry fixes (about 60) however the problems started & things were going down hill long before I did that (at most that could have effected the EPG non-upgrading guide) because it was that recent. I ran SFC many times but it never finds any problems. I have re-run the setup process for Media Center and it has no effect.

If there is no way to reset what's happened to Media center? I thought I'd do a repair installation and that brought me back here to this site. However, my DVD only has SP1 & i've upgraded to SP2....but I could learn / try & make a slipstream DVD to do the repair process, however I also have a dual booted (w/XP system). XP was installed first on it's own Drive (the first installed in the system) and then Vista was installed on it's own physical separate hard drive but IDK if it's the Primary boot drive?

So if I can't figure out the SP2 slipsteaming, and/or if the repair doesn't work... I was thinking I'd like to just grab a bigger hard drive that's blank and install Vista onto it; is there a way to fit this into the set up I already have? I think that if I just pull my current HD (with Vista) on it out of my system that my XP OS will not boot? But if I do that & then stick in the blank HD, and proceed to load Vista onto it (clean install) will it then detect the XP installation & set up the boot process correctly?

This is frustrating. I posted a request for help on this site but haven't gotten any help? So I don' know if there might be some registry fixes to repair/reset or fix the problems I'm having with Media Center.
