Another Vista Problem...assistance needed
Here is a weird one.
Whenever I have an .mpg file and I go into the folder I get a Rundll error that shuts explorer down.
It only does it with mpg.
I have the k-lite codec pack but maybe it's not happy on vista?

the mpeg decoder that k-lite installed isnt vista compatible.
run the k-lite codec tweak tool and disable the mpeg decoder / or reinstall and choose a different mpeg decoder.

Don't care if you don't want to hear it but the simple fact is Vista sucks ass and is a complete failure on all counts.

just reinstall it.... during installation, pick one of the other 2 or 2 under mpeg.

I have made a few Vista problem threads :chuckles:
I did the tweak uninstall and retried the file and no rundll error!
Thanks Jani
