Error in Vista Media Center

[Ted F]

I get this message at boot up and I can't go into Vista MCE : "windows media
center receiver service stopped working and was closed"

What is doing this? How can I fix this?

Help Please...

Thanks that worked. After I requested for the hotfix, MS sent me the hotfix
download hours later. Applied the hotfix and the error went away.
