A WPF application installed on a demo machine is failing to play WMV files giving the error above. The same file can be played using Windows Media Player 10 (and also 11) on the same machine. The demo worked fine up until early last week, possibly indicating a virus or compatibility problem with a Windows Update (no other software was installed). I re-loaded Windows XP SP2, and all current recommended updates. The problem still occurs. I also loaded WMP 11 on the system and the problem still occurs. The only information I can find on the error is it relates to "E_DDRAW_GENERIC" Is anyone able to give any information on this error Thanks.
Environment: Windows XP SP2, Toshiba Laptop with an Intel Mobile 915GM/GMS, 910GML Express Chipset Family graphics chipset. I loaded KB935448 to fix a dll rebasing issue with the audio drivers (Realtek High Definition Audio).
