It has been rumored that the MMSYSTEM006 error is caused by a missing [MCI] driver. While I’m not suggesting that this is the issue in every instance that the error occurs, try the solution below and see if it does the trick:
Download the 16-bit (yes, you heard me right) version of QuickTime for Windows and install it. If you want you can also install the 32-bit version over the top if you don’t already have it, but you MUST install the 16-bit version to fix the errors. Download the self-extracting file.
