I have hp pavillion dv 6255 ca with vista ultimate . I get the message that Media centre has stopped working and windows is trying to find a solution to the problem. Also I can not access my web cam in skype despite trying all old and new versions and all settings in the tools and advanced sections. Earlier there was no problem. I read somewhere that the problem is due to corrupted media center dll (ehiextcom.dll) and can be rectified by downloading the same. I don't know how to go about it. I will appreciate any help from any friend. Thanks

If you would like, you can also try replacing the dll.

Here is the link to the DLL:
PC Help Headquarters - ehiExtCOM.dll

The dll to replace should be located here:
c:\windows\ehome\ehiextcom.dll
