KB2670838, platform update
A platform update is available for Windows 7 SP1 and Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1
fyi, my WMP 12 and WMC stopped playing avi files giving a bex error after installing this update which was listed as optional on windows update up until IE10 showed up I think. Still plays mp4 fine. I read where this platform update caused the problem, so I removed it and sure enough wmp 12 now plays avi again. Yet removing update thru windows update site also automatically removed ie10 so I guess it's no longer "optional".
Also I'm using catalyst 13.10 with HD5770 on physical machine. If I go into a vm with platform update and IE10 installed avi plays fine. So I guess the AMD, IE10, KB2670838 combo does not like WMP and WMC playing avi files heh. Hope this helps anyone with similar problem.
