Completed. Thanks. Help- Codec Required - Error.

[falcybe]

hello Barbara,

I'm just wondering if you are looking in the right place. I too have a folder C:/windows/system32 but my operating system is definitely 64 bit, as shown on the photo in my previous posting.
Somewhere in the path I gave you, you should see a page with all sorts of information about your computer:
operating system (XP, Vista, Windows7, other), processor, ram, etc.

cheers, falcybe

Hi Falcybe,

I have Windows XP and if I go into Control Panel it leads me to > System > System Properties as shown.

Glad to be of help, Barbara.

Hello Barbara,

I couldn't see how many bits you have on your photo :-) and it has been too long since I had XP to remember perfectly but I am 99% sure you have 32 bit.

Anyway, computers are very forgiving so assume you have 32 with your download and if it doesn't work then go back and choose 64!!

All the best, falcybe

Hi Falcybe,

To get a proper look at my PC System details, I had to follow this path:

Control Panel >  Help & Support > Advanced System Info > Detailed System Information, which then showed a list of all the workings/content ,including the entry = System Directory   C:\WINDOWS\system32.

So I'm taking it that means I have a 32 bit System?

I'm always wishing  I was more technical 

Thanks again

barbara.

My computer will not recognise my cam corder and found this was a codec error. Having come across this thread was about to download k lite full version when i noticed the `advised free registry check" to use before down loading is it safe to use this? I know very little bout computers.

I wouldn't bother - they are trying to sell you something.
They will make it seem as though you are in dire need of this program that they have.
Only use that, if all else fails.

You can download Klite from a number of sites,you don't have to use those that throw unwanted stuff in.It is safe,I've used it for years without problem.There is also a 64bit version.

Thanx to u both for advice. I did think they were trying to sell but as inexperienced was also thinking maybe i`d better do registry thing in case something goes wrong ... not a lot of confidence and all that.

So having determined i am 32 bit .. which version should i download .. basic standard or full? and should i use the link provided in this post?
