.WMV error
Today I have faced a problem using Windows Media Player. I have downloaded a .wmv file from Mirosoft Website. That is a Webcast related to SSIS [ SQL Server Integration Services ]. After completion of download, I open it. Windows Media Player is issuing a error that it not able to play the file. I installed various media players and codecs other than Windows Media Player. No one is able to play the file. At last, I visited to Webcast site to view the video online, on web too it refused to play. At that time it pop up an error that ”acelp audio codec is missing” then in Googled it. I got the link. I installed the codec. Voila!!!!! The .wmv is playing in Windows Media Player without any hassle. The whole process took me more than 3 hours. At last, I’m Happy.

Boot from the Vista DVD.
Click ‘Repair my Computer’
At the prompt to select your OS installation, click the button that says ‘Load Drivers’. This should bring up a explorer-style drive browser.
Then just right-click on the drive you tried to compress, and deselect ‘Compress this Drive’, which should still be ticked on. Hit apply, and apply to subfolders/files.Reboot.Fixed it for me in a hurry, hope this helps someone else. “
I did same as mentioned above. I got my OS back without any hassle. Thanks to the Forum and Knarfishness. Thanks Google.
