Title: new problem...windows media player 9
Post by: homer on April 28, 2006, 11:19:13 PM
sorry about posting another topic so quickly, ive read previous posts and searched the net for related problems but to no avail. anyway the problem is windows media player 9 freezes at random intervals. could be halfway thru a song, after 3 songs, or the second it loads. also when it freezes, sometimes it takes the whole computer down with it. (ex. instead of just wmp 9 freezing it freezes other applications along with it and eventually the whole computer freezes).  :-?

again any help would be greatly appreciated. :)

Google revealed a little, about "non-standard monitors" and such. Could you try upgrading to Windows Media Player 10, and see if that helps? Don't know that it will, but upgrading solved a few WinMedia problems for me...

How about a hint or two about your system. Now we know the operating system anyway.  ;)
