Every time I try to watch anything with the GOM Player I get this error message:

"Cannot reset DirectShow. This software will run the system DirectX 7.0 or higher."

I used to watch GSL with the GOM player all the time, now I get this. I've searched all over the internet for a solution and have found nothing.

Install K-lite codec pack and update your directx software via microsoft links.

I installed all of the k-lite codecs and it didn't fix the problem. However, when I try to update directx, I get an error. I think that might be the problem. But I can't update directx, and thus I can't even fucking fix the issue.

Well if you have a direct x error you should resolve that first, also try updating your graphics card driver.
Live and let live.

I think I fixed the error with DirectX. I also have updated all of my drivers.

Bump. I really want to fix this badly... GSL is awesome, but this prevents me from watching it. I also notice that when I reinstall GOM Player, it says it cannot install correctly because of missing DLL files. What could that be? The windows solution thing says it has to do with ActiveX.

EDIT: I'll award the person who gives me a working solution ten dollars via Paypal. That's how desperate I am.

Have you deleted the gom player folders completely after uninstalling? If gom player doesn't work then you can just use gomstreamer with vlc

I did google it. When I go in the folder and click the exe, it goes about 1/6th of the way of the install then it just exits out and does nothing.

You need .net framework installed and you need to run it as an admin

Do you remember any changes you made after the last time that you were able to use gom player which may have screwed up your computer?

I honestly have no idea what could have caused this. I've had this problem for at least a month and a half now and even if I did do something, I wouldn't know what it was. I know I'm giving really little to go on, but I guess the best I can hope for is that someone who has had the same issue as I might have a solution.

I'm thinking at this point I might have to just do a clean install of windows. Really fucking sucks, I hope someone can help before I am forced to do this.

It also says I'm missing flash.ocx when it fails. I also cannot find this file on my computer and reinstalling adobe flash player didn't fix the problem. Once again I am willing to pay the person that gives me my solution ten dollars.

I'm having the same issue. DirectX is up to date, I don't think I changed anything from when this worked a couple of weeks ago.
