Class not registered???

[Ausi Drew]

Have done the reinstall using .inf/I386 moviemk.ex_ routine and it now works
(thanks to this forum for the workaround) but ...

I now get this message "***.wmv could not be imported. Class not
registered." for all videos.

Using XP Pro SP3

Can anyone assist please.

Thank you.

Just a thought...have you installed WinAVI?

And the following link may be worth a look:

Movie Maker always has to close

Here's a link to a Google search that may
offer something useful:

"class not registered"

Also might be worth a try to:

1. Install/reinstall Windows Media Encoder 9
2. Update Video drivers.


regsvr32 %windir%\system32\qdv.dll

================================

No guarantees...but it might be worth
a try to run the following command.

Go to...Start / Run...and type (or copy / paste)
the following...

regsvr32 %windir%\system32\qdv.dll
(yes, there's a space between the first 2 and %)

Press Enter.

You should see a dialog that says:

DllRegisterServer in C:\WINDOWS\system32\qdv.dll succeeded

John ... no toWinAVI.

.... and I am patiently trying the other options you presented.

However when I did the ".inf/I386 moviemk.ex_ routine" mentioned above to
get Movie Maker to stop shutting down all the time I did notice a pop up from
the system that said something about "you are loading/using 3rd party
drivers. Do you want to revert to original windows drivers?" and then when I
clicked YES, the next pop up prompted me to load SP3 CD ... which I dont have
of course because I updated via internet, and the pop up gave me no choice to
browse. Could this be the problem??

Thanks for your tireless input to this newsgroup by the way. Cheers.
