Help with Windows Media Player?

[randyandy]

Hi.

Can any of you wonderful computer experts give me some advice please?

As usual (lol) I clicked one of the movie links from the other forums (soz can't remember which one) and ever since I have my windows player has not worked properly.

Has some t**t put one up with a virus? Is my player now f**cked? and does anyone know how to repair it please?

The player isn't just knackered for downloads it won't work properly for normal DVD's either.

I am thinking I will I have to uninstall and reinstall Windows XP but if there is an easier way around it any help would be appreciated.

Cheers

Andy

Just restore your machine to a point before the trouble and it should work ok again:

Start > Help and Support > System Restore > Restore my computer .... > Choose a date from calendar when it last worked > Press Next


If that doesn't work you don't need to uninstall XP just to fix Media Player ... download the version you want and install it

Thanks Blue

The only thing I've downloaded (ish) are the clickable links to vids advertised in the Forum.

Don't know which one made it go f**cked but am assuming it was one of em.

Will give everything a try soon. To busy lookin at Sahara's fab pics at the mo but hope to work it out soon especially before Lolly Badcock posts another one of hers lol.

Thanks for your help.
