Hey everyone, thanks in advance for any replies.
I've got a Gateway 7500 series laptop running MSWINXP Home Ed. At startup, the system tries to launch WMP and generates an application pop-up stating that the Application is not installed properly. I've gone through and removed all the updates to WMP and forced it back down to version 9 but it still comes up with the error. It comes up with the mesg anytime you try to invoke WMP from a shortcut or the programs menu. I've tried re-installing both version 9 and version 10 and it tells me that there is already a newer version running on the system and it cannot be changed. I went through windows add/remove programs and removed WMP but it still gives me the same problems. I've gone through the registry and removed references to version 10 and still the same problems. I'm 95% sure im looking at a repair install here but i was trying to avoid it. Any Ideas?
