Video dont play

And i was wondering why the mod was not answering any question

Mods, like other posters, are at liberty to respond to what they want to as their time permits. If the topic doesn't interest them, they pass (like everyone else). I have watched this thread evolve (and I use the term loosely) but have not been interested in jumping into the fray. There is a total of 14 responses in 6 days. This is an example of multiple responses by no one with a solution leading the other posters down a path to nowhere. Many topics go on endlessly like this but I don't want to name names. Please read the origianal question and ALL the responses to see what I mean.

I myself don't use WMP11 (Is it still beta or a real release?), but there are issues with installing, running and removing it for some.

Let's start with a clean slate and carefully define the problem and the attempted solution. Did everyone use their google button?

Any Mod here is going to answer 3 people problem here!!!!  

Well son of a gun , someone must have stolen the sign that suggests that the moderators must answer all issue related questions ...... For the record, the mods are here to make sure that the forum doesn't get occupied by off topic posts etc.  This is a public forum and thats what makes it so popular ...... If you have a issue ....and post it in the appropriate location , the odds are that there will be a number of responses ...... any one of which may resolve your issue .  The mods may offer advice as may any other visitor . When a poster YELLS or insists on an instant answer , their rantings will fall on deaf ears. There are,many very knowedgeable members here and their contributions to this forum should be appreciated by the visitors . Posters should take a minute and do a search for their issue as opposed to simply posting it ....... ( odds are its already been posted before ) ......... Use google ..... and then take the time to read some of the suggestions posted here . Some of them even work ..........

Well the problem is i have a brandnew laptop and a old computer.
These 2 PC was just connected to the internet for a fews week ago but when i try to play some WMP video on some site it will not work but only QT works.

I have installed these plugin
Adope Flash 9.0
Active X control
PDF reader
Quick Time

And i have WMP 10 and 11 installed on my PC and laptop.
The Computer is both at WinXp sp2.

Any ideas ?

Do you think haveing 10 AND 11 could be a problem?

[T-Chai]

I think no because i was surfing the internet when i had WMP 9 installed on my old computer and WMP 10 installed on my laptop.
And the video wasnt working then, so i download and installed WMP 11 on both PC and it didnt work and now i have WMP 10 installed on both computer because someone surgest me to do it.
