I keep looking but seem unable to find an answer to a little problem that
has occured since installing of Pinnacle's Studio 8.

I am 99% certain that this is being caused by Studio 8, as the problem was
not present before installing and it disappeared when I did a 'System
Restore' of time immediately before Studio 8 installed.

The problem is when I play a Wave file in Windows Media player an error
appears in the WMP status bar saying 'Error Downloading Codec'. The file
then proceeds to play. The play list displays the message 'One or more
codecs required to open this content could not be found'.

Is this just a problem that I have or has someone else out there experienced
something similar. As far as I can see no other type of file is affected. So
why it happens to just wave files, I do not know.
