0xC00D1199: Cannot play the file
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. You may encounter this error
message for one of the following reasons:

The file type is not supported by the Player. The following table lists the
file types supported by the Player. If the file type you are trying to play
is included in this table, then the file may have been encoded by using a
codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case,
Windows Media Player cannot play the file.
The file type is supported by the Player, but the file was compressed by
using a codec that is not supported by the Player.
The file type is supported, but you are trying to play it in a way that is
not supported by the Player. For example, you may have attempted to drag a
DVD file with a .vob extension from a DVD to the Windows Media Player icon.
Or you may have attempted to open a .vob file by clicking Open on the File
menu.
You are trying to play one part of a multipart file. Use a newsreader or
other program to combine the files, and then try again.

and another message...
I am using windows media player 9. I have no sound? a message comes
up..Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with
your sound device. There may not be a sound device installed on your
computer, it may be in use by another program, or it may not be functioning
properly.

I'm not sure what do do next? I am unable to play audio on my computer!

HELP!...lol

Assuming Windows XP OS that is fully updated with service pack 2 and latest
updates:

1st thing to try is to reboot the computer. Still no sound?

Sounds like you don't have a sound device driver installed for your system.
Right click My Computer, left click Manage then Device Manager. Left click
the + beside Sound, video and game controllers line (if not already
expanded.) Is there any yellow exclamation points by any of the lines. If
so there is a problem with the driver for that device. If you don't see the
line for Sound, video.... you probably have an issue with your hardware.
You may still be able to get the driver installed.

Go to the computer manufacturer's web site, search for proper drivers for
the sound device that is not working and download and install the drivers.
Your sound should then work.

Let us know if this helps.

You may have the read scripts setting in windows media player had become
unchecked and for this reason the Player cannot read the codecs.
