Player Windows media, windows XP, sound distortion

I just started has a problem with sound is distorted when you play my downloaded music in WMP and audio from YouTube site. It just feels like a vinyl record jumping because of a scratch, etc.   The sound also sometimes speeds up. This started yesterday and has never happened before. I have not recently downloaded something new or added to any program or software.  All the music that I'm currently playing folder my music was purchased (not stuff PTP) and has been played several times before on this computer without any problem.  What is going on?

Hello

1. it happens with all the music files?

2. What is the format of the music file?

I suggest that you install the updated drivers for the soundcard on the computer by visiting the manufacturer of the sound card and check if it works.

    Method 1
    I suggest you to check if the hardware acceleration of the display device setting is too high.
    a. Click Start, click Run, type desk.cpl and then click OK.

    b. click on the settings tab and then click Advanced.

    c. click the Troubleshooting tab, and then move the hardware acceleration to none.

    d. click on apply and then click OK twice.

    e. If the problem is resolved after you move the slider hardware acceleration to none, contact the manufacturer of the graphics adapter driver to determine if there is an update that resolves this specific problem.

    Method 2
    The required codec is missing or damaged. If the problem occurs when you use a .wmv file, download or reinstall the latest version of Windows Media Player. If you use an earlier version of Windows Media Player, upgrade to the current version of Windows Media Player for your operating system.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/downloads/Windows-Media-Player

    If the problem occurs when you use a different format of video file, for example a .mpeg file or an .avi file, download or reinstall the appropriate third-party codec.

  • Unknown problem caused media player to close and that to protect my Media Player Windows has disabled skins

    Original title: "skins".
    I recently downloaded a lot of skins from the microsoft Web site, and it worked very well for about an hour. Then I saw a skin called 'come back' I don't not download but recalled seeing in my default skins that were already installed. I wanted to see what it was and when I did caused a problem which I can't specify because the notification window remained only until fairly long for me to see (in a nutshell) "unknown problem caused media player to close and to protect my Media Player Windows has disabled skins. Now, I spent over 3 hours to try each answer in the forums for this issue and not one worked for me. I am running Windows Vista Home Basic and I can't find a way to reactivate my skin so that I can use only skins working know is the company and changing the skin that caused the problem. I tried deleting and reinstalling all the skins again, but again does not help. I tried to do a right click on the skin to go to properties to activate as suggested in the forums, but when I right click on it nothing happens. So now I have like 20 downloaded skins but the only way that they work is if I download again and choose to view them, but if I try to change the playlist or switch to full mode then it goes to firm skin and I download it again to get the one I want. I am so frustrated with this problem which I think should be a very easy thing to fix, but nothing I try works. Please help me. Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.

  • My Windows 7 Media Player and Media Center disappeared

    I have a Dell studio xps, 64 bit, Windows 7 ultimate 2010 edition computer. Not being not able to identify what was going on with her, I called technical support. She concluded that a driver had to be updated and I had a virus. (I have Norton and System Mechanic, and Malware Bytes) It has been never picked up by my virus software.

    Everything was a lot until this morning and I discovered that I didn't have Windows Media Player and no Media Center either.

    I spent the day doing research and trying to find the answer, but I couldn't.  I found a similar question to mine, but it was in vista (like evertime that I look for a solution to a problem for 7, all I can find is for vista).

    Thank you very much for the help.
