No filters could be found

[ginglarr]

When I try to play and of my MP3s I get a "No combination of filters could be found to render". I've played these before all 2000 of them and they worked fine. Also when I tried to play my .asf files I get no audio. I've renstalled Media Player and Soundblaster and DirectX. I've downloaded every Codec I can think of with no results. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Go to this link:

When you get there, go to the IE toolbar to Edit&gt;find
Type No combination of filters. Perform the search.
It will take you to a section on this subject. There's a registry file there for Download and other information. Hope it helps.
