Class Not Registered Error message - WMP and other applications - Please Help?

[Arnaud]

Hi everyone... newbie here hope u'll be able to help
been getting 'class not registered' error messages

first in Windows Media Player 9 ... was working fine.. then suddenly when I try to play any song I get this error message.
I installed WMP 10 thinking that's do the trick ... but still getting error message : now says thatWMP "has encountered an unknown error. This can occur when another program or operating system component encounters a problem but does not communicate the nature of the problem to the Player."
(I can play the songs with Winamp allright )

Oh... and now I'm also getting an 'Error 352 : class not registered' message when I click on browser's Favorites - 'organise favorites' is this related?
I've googled it all ... without success ...
if anyone out here can help, I'd be super grateful.
Using Windows XP

Thanks a million!
Arnaud

Hey Arnaud

Go to control panel, add/remove programs, add/remove windows components.
Remove Windows Media Player, Reset your computer,
After doing so reinstall your Windows Media Player.

See if it helps.

Good Luck
