From: Joanie on 5 Apr 2010 22:14 Suddenly my WMP 11 won't play DVD's videos, it will play audio disks, is it possible to uninstall WMP 11, & reinstall it. I keep reading about codecs but it looks very involved and I am worried that I will do something wrong. Any advice appreciated. Joanie.

If you happen to download a codec that is not necessary your PC will either tell you not to or it will just ignore it. I had a similar problem with WMP 11 yesterday & I re-installed it (I have it saved) and re-installed codecs from my previous "saved" bunch. Good luck, Joanie.
From: Joanie on 6 Apr 2010 22:14 Hi Sandy, thank you for helping me but I am a little confused. Do you mean that I should uninstall WMP from add/remove, then click on the download tab at the site you sent the link for?. or do I just keep WMP and click on the codecs tab...the big redish one at the top. thanks again, Joanie.
