    Hi,

    I am trying to run a software under parallels, which uses fddshow codec.


    Whenever I start the Video the following Error occurs

    BuildGraph failed: Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {51B4ABF3-748F-4E3B-A276-C828330E926A} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 80040273.

    After some hours with google, I come to the conclusion, that this error is application independent and somehow has to to with the
    a) the graphics driver and directx
    b) fddshow
    c) codec

    When I run exactly the same config in bootcamp (except the video driver of course)
    everything works fine.

    Any idea?

    Regards
    Markus

    Yes, Errors like this....
    Can you reproduce errors with divx codecs?
