We use our Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit PC as a Media PC.

Jul 11, 2019  If you want to reinstall Windows Media Player, try the following: Click the Start button, type features, and select Turn Windows features on or off. Scroll down and expand Media Features, clear the Windows Media Player check box, and click OK. Restart your device. Windows Media Player should be uninstalled. Repeat step 1. Download Advanced Codecs for Windows 7 / 8.1 / 10. Contains nearly all known codecs that are specially optimized for Windows 7, 8 and 10 in order to fully enjoy your favorite movies and music. I used windows media player 12 to play the 1080p videos, and it plays them excellently with no noticeable lag and seemingly no picture quality reduction. So the problem must be due to the codecs. Wmp12 uses what internal or system codecs for the videos / audios? If it is system, thinking of using the same codecs for potplayer and kmplayer.

If it matters, it is the Asus EB1501. A little slow, but it works.

In an effort to get .MKV files to play, I installed Shark007's codec pack. The .MKV files play now.

I got my hands on a few good .AVI files yesterday, and we were going to watch those. Microsoft shows >> HERE << that .AVI files are supported, so my guess is something in Shark007's pack changed something that was working before.

I really hate having to constantly fight these codecs, especially on something that is supposed to be a HTPC where the mouse and keyboard are never touched and Media Center is running 100% of the time.

I recommend to use K-Lite Codec Pack. It has it's own classy player and a lot of codecs.
Plus it's free.

My only solution was to reformat and reinstall Windows.

The second time around, all I installed was the HAL media splitter. It is old, but only one component. It has been installed and running since about a week after posting this question, and has had no major problems. (All audio isn't great, but it works)
