0 +Fulcrum Subscriber¹ Posted July 30, 2002 Subscriber¹ Share Posted July 30, 2002 Maybe you can try this Free Codec Pack, Called Nimo Personally, my WMP is crapping out on me, every once in awhile it reports a similar problem, tryin to dl the Codec, so i've almost had to switch PowerDVD as my default movie viewer (at least when wmp fails). Strangely, I dont think microsoft downloads are not functioning, as I can goto windowsupdate and get the new stuff, I think its just a WMP thing right now. Anyways, Good Luck!
