Vista MC Error Code 13

Hi all!

Been having a few problems with my Media centre guide since I upgraded my TV
card. Since upgrading and scanning for new channels it has been unable to
download the guide data, before it would just sit on the same screen with
the progress bar and not move. Earlier tonight I tried it and its giving me
error code 13.

I have searched the net and their doesn't seem to be any solutions for Vista
MC only XP MCE.

Hopefully somebody on here will know :)

Thanks

Paul

RE: Vista MC Error Code 13

I have the same problem. I just updated the drivers for my ATI TVWonder 650
card. I get to the point where MC lists my available guides. When it goes to
download, it sits there with 3 dots showing for a few minutes before saying
that it couldn't download the guide. In event viewer it says that MC
encounter error code 13. I have Netscape Antivirus allowing ehsched to
connect to the internet. It obviously is because it can pull up a list of
guides. I have seen the articles about deleting the existing guide info and
reregistering dlls but they don't work for me. Any suggestions?

Re: Vista MC Error Code 13

Strange, think I will just give up on MC. Was really good but theirs no
community support, no support from MS or anything. Waste of time to be
honest.

Never seen such a poor response from a community as I have with Vista MC.

It's individuals that respond, not communities.

My understanding of the Code 13 error is that it's essentially a firewall
issue, and revolves around the way Microsoft is testing the Internet
connection.There seem to be a variety of methods it can use for this.

It either tries retrieving the site

http://www.msftncsi.com/ncsi.txt

ie a small text file which you can view in a browser, or does something
similar with other ip addresses such as 65.55.13.251 (another Microsoft
owned web server). If the method it chooses fails then it throws up this
Code 13 error, telling you there's a problem with the Internet connection,
even when it's obvious there isn't.

Although not an ideal long-term solution, you should be able to download the
guide by temporarily disabling the Windows firewall (assuming that's the
only firewall you've got running), and then reenabling it once done.

These commands run from an elevated ("Run as administrator") command prompt
on Vista should enable you to do that

net stop MpsSvc (stops the firewall)
net start MpsSvc (restarts the firewall)

Re: Vista MC Error Code 13

Assuming "Netscape Antivirus" is Norton.

Norton is likely causing your problem.
Replace Norton with the free AVG http://free.grisoft.com/ or Avast
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html, and Windows Firewall and Windows
Defender. Disabling Norton is not enough. You need to completely uninstall
it. If it doesn't solve the problem, get rid of Norton anyway. Norton is
known to cause many problems which don’t always appear immediately.
Download and run the Norton Removal Tool.

Re: Vista MC Error Code 13

Same issue, but I have always been running AVG.
Even disabled I am not able to get the guide.
Couple of other things I have noticed. With or without AVG turned on:

- Can not remote dekstop to the PC (another issue i am trying to resolve)
- Does not respond to pings on the lan, but can ping the gateway and other
devices.
- I have added a site white list on the router based on the logs for
microsoft epg site.
- Other applications on he PC (itunes for example) and in MCE (sport scores,
internet trailers etc) are all being downloaded correctly.

Any help would be appreciated.

Re: Vista MC Error Code 13

I dont think the problem is on your end. Just recently I've started
experiencing error 13s too.

It varies but I get a successful guide download from about 1 every 3
tries to 1 every 10 tries.

I've made no changes, so I know its not anything on my end. I also
have 2 MCE machines and both are doing it.

Other people have told me that they too are experiencing the same
problem.

It seems that something funky is happening at the servers.

Re: Vista MC Error Code 13

Ok so it is too varied and widespread to be a configuration issue.
I have checked my Fortinet logs and I see the connection on ports 443 and
port 80. I am at the point of doing a packet dump on the router but this is
getting ridiculous.
At what point would Microsoft help us out?
