Windows media video problem

right click my computer----->manage-------->events--------->applications and look for (X)fatal errors or (!)errors (edit: ty ^ previous poster)

have you deleted the old file and downloaded it again and checked it?

this file is what you want not the foreign version Hey! your not greek?

This codec pack is cool no matter what player you have:

K-Lite mega pack

Nice one, No i'm not Greek, I have found event viewer and there are loads of yellow errors and a few red ones, I'll try and figure out how to take a few screenshots...

Edit: Actually i'll just say, all yellow ones say "event system"
Most red ones say "application error" but a few say "MsiInstaller"

There are alot in there, but I've been trying so many times to install this...

The only thing with that player download, I can't seem to find a way to play vids on the net, I have to download them then drag the file into the box. Is there a way to get things to play on the net, videos like on Gamespot.com???

What does the codec pack do???

Chris,

Give this a shot.

[local disk]C: -->Program Files -->Windows Media Player -->mplayer2.exe

Double click, see if it opens.

If it does ... click "File" --> "Open"

Type in the following URL:
207.44.246.82...

Click Okay.

Post back with whether or not it opens, and if it plays the .wmv file

Yes mplayer 2 opens and plays the file.
Is there any way I can use that to play vids on a web page?
