Hi everybody,
I was trying to set some machine in order, uninstalled everything I could find
remotely resembling a codec in Control panel -> Add or Remove Programs, and then
reinstalled only the necessary ones, but the result is the same: some green
movement instead of a clear video. So, before I go down the format c: path (G,
thanks, M$!), I thought I'd ask some questions here:
1. How does one go about cleaning the machine of that codecs mess? I mean
completely cleaning: files as well as settings that remain after the uninstall
(this is an oxymoron, I know, but Windows seem to be this way).
2. How to manualy install codecs? What is a "raw" codec file? Where do you get
it (_not_ the installer!)? Where do you put it? What system (registry?) settings
must be set? Where?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
