Anyone receive this error in Windows Media Player?

"ClassFactory cannot supply requested class"

This is w/wmp 8 on an XP pro machine. I guess I'll install WMP 9 but I haven't heard good things about it.

<fill in name of higher power/deity here> bless Google.

The general first step would be to ensure you have the proper codec(s) installed...

yeah, I've searched google. I have the latest codecs (as far as I know). I searched here first and installed ffdshow and ac3filter.
Also have wmp9 and it still gives an error. ALthough not the same on about ClassFactory.

On another forum someone said a Divx player would work.
What program plays divx?

If you install DivX make sure you dont install the DivX bundle from divix.com ...that is unless you LIKE trying to remove spyware (GAIN)

Try this place instead...I use it and it seems to work fine. http://nimo.titanesk.com/modules/freecontent/index.php?id=1
