What's going on everyone? I hate to make accounts just to post on a forum for support with something, but I'm rather desperate as far as getting this game to work, so I'm posting this thread on a bunch of sites related to Fable TLC to see if anyone can give me a working fix. I've been trying to fix this issue since Friday and generally I'm good at getting games to work, but a legitimate fix for this game is eluding me. If anyone could reply and help me out I would be extremely happy!

"Alright so I searched all over the internet for an answer to this and I'm generally pretty good at finding things but the answer to this problem has eluded me. My problem is that whenever I start the game, the beginning intro video skips and I get the error "Unable to play video. Please check that your video and audio hardware are working correctly. Error Code: 0x80040241". Any further non-graphic generated videos in the game (.wmv) skip as well without an error message. You can view the image below for the error screen.

Does anyone know how to fix this? The game runs fine (despite a sound problem which I will describe below in a second) other than this.
Now as for the sound problem, the sound seems to glitch out a lot and I won't be able to hear the background stuff very often. One example I have is where the bandits break in to oakvale in the beginning of the game. In the graphic video a guy gets shot with an arrow and one of the bandits exclaims "Got one!". The sound from the arrow hitting the guy can't be heard, and I'm sure there was music at this part as well last time I played. Does anyone know what the problem here could be?
I dislike asking others for help because I like to fix problems myself but I looked hard and couldn't find any conclusive information on what to do to fix this problem."
