Recently I started getting codec error messages when I attempt to play
certain MP3 files on my XP computer. The files play fine on my MP3 player as
well as my Vista laptop, however.

So what gives? The files used to play ok on the XP machine, but not now. Any
suggestions?

Suggestions:
List the codec error
list the software your using to play file

Do'h! Good idea. :-)


Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the
file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file.


What's strange is that only some of my MP3's won't play- the others are
fine, and they ALL play on my other (Vista) PC and generic MP3 player.

Do I need to "un-codec" and "re-codec" the MP3 files?

Thanks!
