howto fix broken Windows Media player being installed


Recommended Posts

Posted

I have Win XP Sp2 pro with Windows media player 9. After repairing the system due to an outage and it partially

corrupted the disk, I tried to upgrade to media player 10 and/or 11. However, when trying to upgrade to either

one, I get an error message from the install program after most of it installed saying install failed. I can't install

the rest and this breaks Windows player 9 since the codecs don't seem to play any movies anymore even if

I uninstall what little of media player 10/11 that did get installed. Thus windows media player 9 is broke too.

How to fix this. I tried uninstalling windows player 9 under the add/remove programs selection for the player

component and then installing it. This didn't fix it.

Thanks.
