Windows Media Player (WMP) works fine if I am playing a dvd,cd ect. from my cd rom. It also works fine if I open a file that is stored on my computer such as in "My Documents" ect.
I have video files stored on an external hardrive. When I double click on them I get this window that says:
Windows Media Player
To Use Windows Media Player,log off from windows,log back on,and then start Windows Media Player
OK (button)
I can minimize the screen, and open WMP, then re up the screen and it will play the files, but I have to do this every time!
It's like there is no link from the ext. drive to the WMP.
The drive is a Free Agent Seagate Go with Ceedo on it. When you open Ceedo, there is a page that looks similar to the start menu in Windows. There is a shortcut icon for WMP listed there but it will not open. It just gets the same window described above.
Any thoughts?
I'm using:
XP pro
HP laptop
