Well, it seems i can't go a month with having a computer problem that frustrates the hell out of me. This site always seems to offer good advice so here I am again.
This time it's Real Player and Windows Media Player. When I try to play a video in Real Player, I get this message "Some portions of this file cannot be played. Would you like to check to see if there is an update available for this file?" If I click yes, it plays very slow. If I click no, it plays normally but with no sound. I get this message no matter what file I try to play.
As for Windows Media Player, when I try to play a video or a song or listen to something on the internet (Radio station), first a window pops up thanking me for installing it (Despite the fact I've already installed it), Then I click next and it gives me a list of options, then I click finish and the thank you window pops up again. It's a never ending cycle.
When I re-start the computer RP and WMP both work fine for about a day and then this happens again.
Any ideas what the problem could be?
