How did you try, in contorl panel, or did you download WMP9 from msft site, and try to install it on top? If you tried only one of those you might want to try the other...Socrates: "Good is That at which all things aim, If one knows what the good is, one will always do what is good."

download windows media player (e.g. here http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...ad/default.asp)
and install it
or you might try windowsupdate.microsoft.com (if you XP) there is a (security)patch to WMP9 I think, maybe that helps
Also you can try and find mplayer2.exe in your "Program Files\Windows Media Player" folder.

Short answer: who knows?
Windows is a very large, very complicated, and not very well written system. Various components interact in odd ways to produce inexplicable behaviours. For example, this morning, a friend of mine installed the Space Cadet pinball game on his Wintel box. It worked mostly, except for the flippers, which wouldn't go down once flipped up. A number of trial-and-errors later, it was found that turning off one of the programs in the system tray fixed it.(\__/) 07/07/1937 - Never forget

I use to flip around between WMP, WinAMP, QT32 and DiVX - nowadays I just don't watch porn.
Maybe selecting Add/Remove program from the Settings menu? Does your Windows have this?Some cry `Allah O Akbar` in the street. And some carry Allah in their heart.
