Windows Media crashes on .wmv files

[Talonz]

Windows media player always crashes on wmv files. I have no idea why, this happened before and after the WMP 10 install, any ideas?

Reinstall it. Go to C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\ and run setup_wm.exe.

Tried that, no luck.

Also, I just found out that it doesn't play avi files either.
