You've encountered error message C00D11B1 while using Windows Media
Player. The following information might help you troubleshoot the
issue.

Cannot play the file
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. You might encounter this
error message for one of the following reasons:

Your sound device, such as a sound card or sound controller, requires
an updated driver. To determine if an updated driver is available,
see Windows Update at the Microsoft Web site, or see the sound device
manufacturer's Web site.

Your sound device is not functioning properly. Try using Device
Manager to check the status of your sound device.

To check the status of your sound device
Do one of the following:

If you are running Windows XP, click Start, right-click My Computer,
and then click Manage.

If you are running Windows Vista, click Start, right-click Computer,
and then click Manage.

In the pane on the left, click Device Manager.

In the pane on the right, expand Sound, video and game controllers,
and then look for the name of your sound device.

Do one of the following:

If your sound device is listed but the icon includes a red "X," the
device has been disabled. To enable the device, right-click the icon,
and then click Enable.

If your sound device is not listed, in the pane on the right, expand
Other devices. If Multimedia Audio Controller appears in the list,
right-click the icon, and then click Update Driver or Update Driver
Software. Follow the on-screen instructions to find and install the
driver software.

If you are not able to find and install the correct driver software,
see your computer manufacturer's or sound device manufacturer's Web
site for further assistance.

You do not have a sound device installed on your computer. Install a
sound device, and then try to play the file again. For details, see
your computer manufacturer's or sound device manufacturer's Web site.

and other possible reasons about my sound device, i have followed all
them instructions allthough i didnt think it would be to do with the
sound as music plays fine.
i have tried updates, i have tried using older versions of media
player, tried using realplayer but to no avail. but i can watch
videos on utube
i hope there is someone out there who knows how to sort this

no problems with sound device etcetc and its only video on one
machine running media centre 2005

video that is taken from the good comp to the one not working, via a
nother drive plays ok , when you download videos , or capture video
from a camera , these will not play and give the error message, but
only on one machine

thanks steve
