You've got messed up codecs. Ha ha 5 minutes is long enough to have to use a restore point. Did you forget that we are talking about windows? I would try a restore point unless you always want to rely on VLC to be your only player. I doubt that you will ever be able to fix those codecs unless a restore point works or you reformat. You can install and uninstall codecs all day long, but I doubt that it will solve the problem. Since you can't play mpg files either it means that the problem goes deeper than just codec packs since mpg will play without having to install any codecs at all. They play as soon as you install windows. VLC has brought its own private collection of codecs. That is my guess as to why it works and nothing else will.

Cool. Sometimes you never can figure out what goes wrong. Did you try using the restore points?
