make sure u have the plugin for FF, as for IE make sure its up-to-date and you have the latest Auto updates from microsoft.

 

 

 

if that doesnt solve the problem, try reinstalling WMP

 

 

 

if that doesnt work, check your file associations.

What plugin for firefox? I have IE up-to-date and all autoupdates installed (as of yesterday).

 

 

 

I just tried re-installing a couple of hours ago, it did not work.

 

 

 

Files associations I have checked, I'll edit this with a screenshot of them in a sec. Everything seems normal, every video files plays in WMP and audio does not.

 

 

 

EDIT: here's the screenshot

Do you have any script blockers? I had a simalar problem due to "NO Script" in firefox...

 

 

 

The plugin page is a old support for WMP in third party browsers.. run it and then run windows update

Does Mplayer work in Windows? If it does try that. Just google it.

Yes it does work in Windows. What should I google then?

I don't have any script blockers. This happens in IE too so I think it may not be with firefox settings.

 

 

 

The plugin page just pionts me where to download WMP (10 or 9). I was going to install version 9, but I have a later version and I can't.

 

 

 

WMP is not in add-remove program files, how should I uninstall it?

 

 

 

EDIT: nvm i found out how to uninstall it, you got to click "show updates" in add-remove programs.

 

 

 

EDIT2: Well I have uninstalled WMP11 using the Microsoft FAQ and then installed 10. Guess what? It still doesn't work.
