NOBODY else has reported anything especially not being able to at least run windowed mode and I've run out of ideas

If the "active movie window" opens, then it is likely that some user-installed media application has taken over the file extension and/or displaying of the format from the normal Directshow/Directplay of windows itself.

The end user should find out whatever external media player (most likely) he has installed that is intercepting business as usual, and remove it or train it properly (set its file extensions in its options screen or whatever).

Says Andy, who recently installed a media application that decided that .dat extension files were movies. (Duh!) - dat files are data files and have been since before MS-DOS!). Now all my programming data files icons are all set to its icon style. Ahah - It was only in the third config screen I chose. "Gom Player" thought .dat files were an MPEG file format... Anyway, unchecked it and they are back to normal.
