Read http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...vice/0073.mspx . It should solve your problem.
The other alternative is to view the further details at the Microsoft web page like the error message suggests (although it may only lead you to the above page). |
Yes i have it selected but when it attempts to install after successful completion of the installation of the game, it puts that error message on the screen. When i try to install it manually afterwards from the DVD i get the same results. The same thing happens if i try to install windows media player full.
And yes i have visited that useless site that microsoft have on their site. As usual they totally miss the problem altogether.
Anyway, back on topic, why can i not install the codecs either from the SH3 installation or from manually running the executable from the DVD? And why can i not install windows media player?
And more to the point, is there a way to force it to install windows media player/the codecs anyway?
Oh and something i dont understand. If its a ogg codec problem, then why does the music play in the menu system and in the game, when its encoded in ogg as well as the speech?
That little snippet of information has confounded me entirely.
