Active-X Controls in PowerPoint

[starlitskies]

I am getting this error message when trying to open a .wmv file in PowerPoint:

'Some controls on this presentation can't be activated.
They might not be registered on this computer'

I've been able to view this on other computers and I suspect that it may have something to do with Active-X controls. Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

You might wanna try try re-install Windows Media Player, or download the newest update from

http://windowsupdate.com.

This may fix your problem.

I'm able to open the wmv through Media Player but I get a problem when going through Powerpoint. I've lowered security settings for MS and Internet Options but to no avail.
