I recently had a client who when prompted
upgraded to media player 11. which in turn doesnot allow him to record music that will play in a car cd player his media player 10 would. I have tried to remove version 11 but it will only roll back which will not work either. it says finished however still runs version 11. has anyone else had this happen to them

I had the same problem about a year ago, I had to roll back the history and install verison 9 instead. There are a few other ways of going around this, the roll back sometimes work, and there is also going to the microsoft website and finding a patch under their downloads section. Good luck.

Don't use it to burn CD's, use your burning software or REAL or some other freebie.

If you were smart enough you would have downloaded WMP 10 (is it still available?, doens't matter as I've got it.) As there where a lot of websites that wouldn't work with WMP11 when it first came out.

My advice to to people who ask (whom I know won't give me a paying job and are chasing free consultation) is that they should take there old hard drive with WIN98 and dual boot there new computer.

Too hard for them and they don't want to pay so I just tell them that it's not my problem if they want to pirate music

Visually it was revisiting kindergarten.

I can't STAND being stuck with an infantile system that demands to go on the net to find an album cover, when I've only got three or four tracks by one artist, none from the same album, some from no album.

What a waste of processor cycles and HDD space.

Give me WinAmp or Showshifter any day.
