    I've never heard of this codec so I need for information. Do you get an error message or does it just not work?

    Its so small I can't even make it out.

    Without seeing the picture I suggest you do that following:

    Uninstall - Codec and FFDshow
    Reinstall - Codec and FFDshow
    Try - using a different movie/music to see if it is the file that is corrupt and use a different player

    now, i assume your trying to play an MPEG-4 video if your having trouble with FFDshow. now, i agree with smokie, i had problems and all i needed to do was to d/l FFDshow and media player classic (pretty sure it comes with the codec). if you play your fiels in MPC you shouldnt have any trouble.

    Ok, so you need the codec to watch a video and it crashes when ffdshow is also installed? Does the codec work when ffdshow is uninstalled?
