Hello

Follow these steps to remove corruption and missing/damaged file system repair or replacement.

Run DiskCleanup - start - all programs - Accessories - System Tools - Disk Cleanup

=================================

After the above, you need Codec - get these if 32 bit Vista.

-Free - CCCP also get free tool of insurgents

FFDSHOW - free

Check here:

Plug-ins for Windows Media Player

---------------------------------------

VLC needs, of no use so usually Codec as a backup when asked to support associations of files just say no.

VLC - free

-------------------------------------------------------------

If 64 bits and you need codec.

Read this 1st and go that route, or use the one below.

http://www.Vistax64.com/sound-audio/152850-Vista-codec-pack-32bit-64bit-Media-Player-codecs.html

--------------------------------------------------------------------

If 64-bit Vista - can run WMP in 32 or 64 bit mode.

Or try these: download - SAVE - go to the place where your put them RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN.

For 32-bit use these - OR those listed above that I prefer.

K - Lite Codec Pack 5.0.5 & K-Lite Codec Pack 5.0.5 update
http://www.codecguide.com/

Use them for 64-bit:

K - Lite Codec Pack (64-bit) 2.6.0
http://www.codecguide.com/

-------------------------------------------------------------
You know that you use WMP 32 or 64

Change, change or set 64 - Bit Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11) in Windows Vista x 64 as default
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/01/19/switch-change-or-set-64-bit-Windows-Media-Player-11-WMP11-in-Windows-Vista-x64-as-default/

-------------------------------------------------------------

And you can use it when necessary because no codex is usually required.

I hope this helps.
