Ok, I've looked everywhere and can't find a fix for my problem.
I'm running Windows XP Media Edition and have the latest version of Windows Media Player. Well, for a while now, everytime I try to play an .avi movie file, this box pops up after Window Media Player loads:
It tries to load this OpenMG Secure Module, but always comes up with that error, and ultimately won't play my video.
Has this been happeneing since you got windows xp media or after the fact? I'm guessing that you have avi's in Divx or Xvid format, have you loaded the codec for these recently?
I downloaded the update or whatever, but it said that it was an older update and wasn't necessary. I own a Sony Vaio, so this problem pertains to me. It wasn't doing this the entire time I had the computer, only pretty recently.
UGH! Can't install that version because I have 11. You think I should reinstall that one. I can't find where to uninstall it because it's not on the list of Remove Programs...
God, I wish I knew more about software!!!
I did find 3 OpenMG files on my computer and 2 I've never heard of. I tried to uninstall one, but wouldn't work, said there was an error.
well Uninstall and install are my ideas....thats all I got....only thing else is to shut down for a minute and see if that helps...you be surprised how much turning off the PC can fix....
Sorry I haven't checked this in a while, but I went to Add/Remove Windows Components and my dumb ass unchecked everything but WMP because I misread the directions! That's right, I no longer have a DVD player and CD Burner and Internet Explorer...
I'm just going to take it to Best Buy now and have then reinstall all that stuff.
