When trying to choose a video codec, programs all

[Randy Robertson]

Whenever I try to chose a video codec to encode with, using the standard chooser that is used in most encoding software, all the encoding software crashes with an "The program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down" error" - So is their any way to fix this error? a Utility to uncorrupt my encoders, or a place in windows where they are stored, so I can manually delete them and reinstall all of my video codecs?

sounds like a dodgy bit in windows. i'm guessing your using 98 or me.  I dont know any way around apart form formatting and reinstalling.<br>i switched to 2k
