    Windows Media Center Has Taken over PC. Help Please


    Hi,

    Always something new.
    Would really appreciate some help with this; have no idea what to do.

    I played some videos that I took with my camera and downloaded to PC, and now I have the following problems:

    They videos opened up in Windows Media Player, apparently.
    Played O.K.

    But now, when I click on other Desktop icons having absolutely nothing to do with
    pix or video, Windows Media CENTER opens up.

    It's as if it has taken over my PC.

    What should I do, please.

    Also, all my icons on the bottom left of my screen
    (the Start Menu I think it is called ?)
    now have generic icons. Also a bunch on my Desktop, but not all.

    Clicking on any of these also opens up the Windows Media Center.
    What should I do ?

    How do I get my normal looking icons to show again correctly, and operate correctly ?

    Would it be better or more appropriate to post this in a different sub-forum here ?

    Much thanks,
    Bob

    Silly question, but have you rebooted to see if that solves the problem?
