XP Media Center SP3

[John Smith]

Hello,



I have Media Center 2002 and I recently installed SP3 and now the Media

Center does not work. The error says:



ehshell.exe - Strong name validation failed for assembly...



Is there a fix to this problem?



Thank you.

Were you getting the same error before you installed SP3?



Any particular reason you've waited two years before installing SP3?



What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your

subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?

What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running

in the background when you installed SP3?



Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the

computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought

it)?

Thank you. Someone gave me an older computer and I formatted and reinstalled

the O/S. The link below seems to be for the 2005 edition of Media Center.



I will try to service pack again.
