Alright FIrst of all getting used to this proggram is proving much more
anoying than useful.
And yes, i am a little computer defficiant so you can probably already see
where my problem lies..

Ok though so Windows Media Playerwon't load on my computer anymore.
It first started where if i just would restart my computer everything than

have the authority.. I am the admin though.

You should proceed with the following steps to reset the WMP in Vista.

Delete the following folder:
%USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft\Media Player

Locate and delete the following registry keys:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer
Restart the computer

These should solve it.

I am having the same problem and tried to follow the steps listed below.
When I go to delete the folder listed it won't let me because it says it is
in use. No other folders or items were open.

I have already reloaded xvid as an error message directed and that did not
solve the problem with viewing on windows media player. it is noted that the
video will play in windows movie maker....hmmmm...
