Programs Crash Upon Running (Not all Programs) Need Help.
Alright well to start this I don't know when it began. Maybe a couple days ago however am not sure exactly how it all occurred. So I am running into a issue with my laptop where it will run certain programs but not others and it is causing some rather large issues with things.
List of Programs that Work (A Very Short List):
Google Chrome
Windows Task Manager
Google Talk
Trillian
Kaspersky Pure 3.0
Programs that Don't Work:
Windows Media Player
Media Player Classic
Steam
Gamestop Now
Apple QuickTime
Apple Itunes
Many others don't work. They crash without ever once showing any sign of launching.
This is a huge issue as I cannot watch any videos on my laptop at all currently and I need to be able to watch videos due to classes.
Steam launches, updates, then crashes when it goes to load the main program. QuickTime and WMP and MPC all show no sign of loading at all and just fail to launch.
I have attached a screen grab of my processes running. Do need some help as this is a HUGE annoyance. I cannot find my re-install disk that came with the laptop so some help would be AWESOME! I might have a restore point from a long time back.
If additional information is needed please say so.
I would also like to note that I did a full system scan. Didn't find anything in the files, system structure, registry or anything else computer was clean.
Note:
I am not computer illiterate and have no issues messing with my system registry if needed to remove something that is running.
