Actually I fixed this myself. I got a tool called K-lite Codec tweak tool ran it and turned on all the codecs that were not on, and low and behold it works now. Now I am trying desparately to figure out how I turned all that stuff off and when did I do that? By the way, that is a stubborn problem to fix as it takes 1`0 to 15 minutes of real patience to turn all the stuff on.
