stuck with Windows media problem

still stuck

Darren and Reign,
I could still use your help.

Things just aren't working and I have tried all I can think of plus your suggestions. I've done the WM codec installation. I have installed the encoder9. I have installed the community codec. I have tried to rollback the media player and reinstall various versions. Nothing has solved the problem.

Two points of interest however.
I installed windows XP video decoder check up utility. It lists about seven or eight different decoders...none of which are recommended as preferred MPEG 2 decoders. (I downloaded the same program to my vista drive and it lists as the first item a MPEG 2 decoder. It is checked in green but is still listed as "not recommend for the system a a preferred decoder." That line item decoder does not show up in the list on the XP drive).
Also, I downloaded Quicktime. When I attempted to play a .wma file on it the visual was brighter than it has been to this point. That was encouraging even though the image was still darkened more than it should be. Unfortunately, in an effort to download further codec components the visual seems to have fallen back to its extremely darkened screen and I can no longer make out the images.

I hope that information might trigger another thought from you as to another option that I might try.
Thanks, chirp.

stuck with Windows media problem

I am hoping someone can help....

I have finally figured out the details of a dual boot with Vista and XP pro but, I have a remaining problem with windows media and its ability to play .wma files from the ineternet. It will play the files from the net but the image is barely visible as the picture screen is extremely dark / black. The sound is okay.

Everything appears to be okay with the Vista boot. The Vista WM will play the same files that the XP media boot won't play. When I first set up after figuring the dual boot, the XP boot would play preloaded songs fine (aka David Byrne)but would not play my cd's or music DVD's. It suggested that I was missing codecs. I figured that problem out by loading roxio / cineplayer. Those are working fine now and sound great.
I have tried to reload the media 11 package...that didn't help. I even tried to repair load the xp disc specific to wm. Assuming I was close to doing that right, which I doubt, that didn't help either.

Can anyone tell me what is going on? Can anyone suggest how I might fix it?
Thanks, chirp
