Help to fix this SHIT...

More pc issues...well, had this for a while, but thought I'd give it a go to fix.
WMP has stopped playing all kinds of video files, and I don't know why.
Music is fine, just not video.

To start, I have downloaded the latest version of wmp, and same deal.

A window comes up when I try to play a (.avi usually) file, that says
"wmp encountered a problem while trying to play the file, please click web help for assistance"
Then I get this page when I click it,
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...nalid=80040241
I've followed all the instructions there, and my "sound device" is working fine, fully updated.
The files arent corrupt as I've burned them off before and managed to play them from dvd players fine, also nero (when I had it) played them.

So, any fixes aside from a complete reformat here?
