Hi, "Class Not Registered" or Error 80040154 can have a few different
solutions depending on what are you doing in WMP at the time you get it.

Q: Do you get this while trying to play an AVI?
Is so...You most likely don't have the right codec installed for that
specific AVI or you have a bad install of the codec.

- Download and use GSpot (http://tinyurl.com/328cp)
- Find out the 4CC code for the file codec
- http://tinyurl.com/262go will help you.
(Or post the information back here and I can help)

Q: Do you get this while playing a file other than an AVI?
If so... http://tinyurl.com/yu649 will help you out.
