Vista won't play any media files

[eternalimage]

Please help...I am running vista home and it won't play any media files in wmp, winamp, etc. I have tried several different programs and none work. Video files will play for 5 seconds and then stop. Error message says file could not be available, proxy settings, etc. Any clues?

check to make sure the file exists, and if there is more to the error message please write the whole error message down
