Errors help

[Punked Out Comp]

Someone who is using windows xp can't use windows media player, and he gets this error:
An internal application error has occured


Then he has two games that wont work, with this message:
Run-time error '-2147024770 (800700e)':

Automation error
The specified module could not be found.


Does any one know how to fix these problems?

try uninstalling and reinstalling WMP.
about the second error I found this :
(0x8007007e) (-2147024770) The specified module could not be found

Cause: The specified COM object is registered as an in-process COM server (DLL file), but the DLL file could not be found or loaded.

maybe someone will know what to do with this

Oh! I forgot to add, he just installed SP2 and that might be the problem. Should I uninstall it and then re install it?

And I dont understand the above cause. How do I fix it?

[amose]

I would start with uninstalling and reinstalling the games and WMP.

What about SP2? Should I uninstall and reinstall that?

[amose]

you could as well start with un-reinstalling SP2 (it doesn't do any harm).
