dilligaf1701 0 Posted July 13, 2002 I've got a problem With my Media Player.... If I open a window with audio in it - eg my mp3 folder and double click then theres no problem - Media Player pops and plays the file. If - on the other hand - I try to open a file from Media Player it immidiately locks up and hangs untill I terminate it from task manager. Does anyone have any idea how to get it working again? Due to a new Hdd - This XP is a pretty new installation - I've only got MS Office XP and Dungeon Siege on here so far. Dilligaf Share this post Link to post

dilligaf1701 0 Posted July 21, 2002 I played with this for a couple of days and gave up in the end. Seeing as there was hardly anything on the hdd anyway - I reinstalled Windows. Dilligaf Share this post Link to post

That's why I don't go anywhere but WMP. Share this post Link to post
Admiral LSD 0 Posted July 22, 2002 People put it down because it's a bloated, resource hogging, pig of an application. More people would like it if it *just* played media like the old 6.x versions only with playlist support. Share this post Link to post
