I neeeeeever installed any codec on any machine I have ever built. Just VLC.And all workked perfect on all machines i have built. And that is a ton of machines. One thing,I have seen codecs really hose a computer so bad people had to bring them to me to fix,,
I have had peeps bring in machines where installed those codec Lite packs and the games they had would not even play.. Now I need to mention I am running Win-7 here and all 6 machines in my home.This a very good conversation about this topic. Perpaps I will learn something/or perhaps u will. VLC also runs perfect with no codec download on XP machines....If i am missing something please let me know, ok ? But I really want to fix this guys issue ,and it sounds like you do too ( ;:)
