Exactly,use a better player like BSPlayer which is the best one I have used so far cuz it is easy,good and doesn´t take up so much memory like Media Player does

this did not work for me :( im not sure why i properly did something wrong i pasted that run command into run and tried it and nothing :( any ideas?

zoomplayer is another good choice

its a better idea to remove realplayer if u have it. spyware! :angry:

I don´t know ift his helps but read THIS

Windows Media Player versions 7 and later have progressively MORE anti-copy measures put in, file monitoring (by Microsoft), security holes as bad or worse than the ones in Outlook and Internet Explorer (I had a fake 'MP3' file that was a vbs script virus -- WMP ran it despite being mis-named without even a WARNING!), and is just slow BLOATWARE.
