Video Error in Media Center

Hello,
I can play any video with Media Player however I cannot play the same
..wmv file when in Media Center. I get VIDEO ERROR files are missing.....
This did work at one time.I did update the video driver through windows
update a while back, would this be the cause?

Thank you,
Dan Andrews

Re: Video Error in Media Center

It depends. Your hardware might need the old driver, or a better one. I
would try 'roll back' on the driver, and also go to your Media Center
maker's site for info.

Re: Video Error in Media Center

Thanks for the reply,
I do not have the roll back option in device manager (grayed out). It
is the Intel G33 chipset video driver. What other issues would there be
when getting this error for Video playback in Media Center vs, Vista Media
Player? Where else can I go to get support?

Thanks,
Dan
