windows media player IS known to not respond while the replacing some files within windows simultaneously. I can't say which files though since I'm not sure.

This error also happens due to an update patch by microsoft (have you dont that?) there IS another update patch to resolve this issue.

If that doesn't work, I suggest backing up your skins and re-downloading WMP9 from Microsoft.com it's only 9Mb anyway, hope that helps.

Hi

If your talking about the VS theme then I cannot offer any help

But if you are talking about the replacement system files on Icemans site that gives you a version of wmplayer.exe

The problem is that Iceman made that system file a long time ago now I think its like version 8.06 of WMP and if you have upgraded WMP you should be onto Version 9. somthing.

Since the PC thinks its using version 9 and you use a version 8 .exe it cant run

When you run WMP it should give you an error message about the version numbers thats what happened when I tried to use the file

The only answer is to either restore the the original wmplayer.exe or find the corresponding WMP to Icemans exe

Hope this helps, If Im barking up the wrong tree ignore me :banging:
