Your specs are adequate.

If you have Microsoft's Silverlight installed you might try uninstalling it.

You might try updating Quicktime, if that's not up to date, or uninstalling Quicktime, and see if that makes any difference.

Microsoft might have tricked you into installing Silverlight while you weren't paying attention.

What do mean exactly that you can't uninstall or update QT? That sounds bad, especially with your reporting the error as having the word Multimedia in it.

Do you have any anti spyware software installed on your computer? If you don't then you really need to go some. Spyware blaster, Adware and Windows defender are a few to look at. If you do have some then run a complete scan of your system. While you're at it an anti virus scan might be a good thing to do,.

If all that comes up clean then you are probably looking at some registry issues. Not being able to uninstall a program is not normal at all. Unless you are not the Administrator of the computer.........hmmm, are you?
