Doesn't matter which player I use, because the most stuff works on almost any player. But sometimes I have strange media problems. For example; I don't have sound when I play DVD's, the only program that gives sound with my DVD is PowerDVD, the rest doesn't. Then I can't play WMA files, I installed a lot of codecs by now but that doesn't help either. I want to get rid of there problems. I am aware of the fact I somehow ripped it out of my install CD, although I still have no clue how. If I redownload WMP (and I already said that) then I get the message my operating system doesn't support this version of WMP. Yet it should.
