Hi James,

 

1. have you done any recent hardware or software changes to the computer before the show?

2. What is the number of brand and model of the computer?

Please follow the link and check with the question:

Game hangs or quits unexpectedly:

http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/303032

Note: Also applies to non-Microsoft games.

Important note: You must follow step 7 of the article mentioned above to recover the computer to Normal startup after you complete all the steps.

The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

I hope this helps.

    @Emyherwin

    Welcome to the community. You have a problem with the YouTube app, which is a product of Google. You do not have Sony to blame for this, but we can try to fix first than the app:

    Go to settings--> Apps--> YouTube-> erase data, updates to uninstall and reboot your phone

    Go to the game store and update your YouTube app, then try if the problem persists.

    Hello

    1. don't you also get an error with the message code?
    2 have you installed third-party readers part?
    3. What is the format of the files you are trying to play?

    Follow these steps and check if they help.

    Step 1:

    I would have you readers of third party temporarily Uninstall and check if persists it to the question.

    Step 2:

    Most likely you need codecs to play these files with Windows Media Player. I suggest looking up codec in the Internet that supports the file format, download and install them.

  • Windows 7 - Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file.

    WMP worked fine one day and then the other, it will not play any type of file.  I just get the error message "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file." with each trying to play any type of file.  It won't play video or audio files, even those she played a few days ago.

    Dano_TR: try to use system restore to restore to a point from before the problem started to happen, as I have suggested earlier in this thread.

    In addition, if you have any installed codec Pack, try to remove the. Uninstall iTunes and Quicktime could also help.
