You can't uninstall WMP9 really, all it does is do a system restore to mess up your system

So the simple answer is: No, you don't have to, just install right on top

It keeps crashing on my system :angry:

Does iTunes install on 2003?

Idunno? :(

I hate the new icon, it doesn't fit in with the windows XP icons. :rolleyes:

[figgy]

I don't like the fact it shows the lyrics in a small window at the bottom.

Instead of the larger window in WMP9.

Other than that this is the best player I have ever used.

Does anyone else get this message when they click on online stores button (the arrow to the right of the online stores button doesnt't work at all for me). I'm in the UK.

'No Available Online Store

There are no online stores available for your location'

How come your windows media player says

|Music|Radio|Movies & TV|

When mine just says |Online Stores|

[figgy]

You cant install this on any machine other than Xp

Win2003 version should be out in a few months.

You can hack the msi file (using Orca) to install it.

It works with no problems but I am sure you don't want to install this on a production server.

I do think it is kind of funny that they are loading Windows 2003 Server up with multimedia capabilities and such. I guess if I was running a server, I'd want it to be totally lean and clean, without DirectX even. I'd only be using it for file and print serving, so guess I could not see a need for all that fancy stuff they have on the Client side. :huh:

Finally, I know the reason why the red X appeared in new WMP... Here is the screen shot of WMP 10 English version under Korean language set... ok no problem on butterfly !!

I think Microsft doesn't luanch official online music page yet .. it still beta ..

So, All of man who don't see the butterfly never worry about red X button ...

The time is the key ...

Remember Windows Media Server is a part of 2003 (not sure if it a enterprise only a option however)

So all the directx components to handle the media files need to be available.

Media Player is just a shell that uses the base system components.

Any way you use GDI only and disable DirectX functionality by changing the Video Acceleration.

thanks for this :)

Good point. Thanks for making it. :)

All people who see the red X problem.

Close IE and WMP and clear your browser cache.

ive been trying to remove it.

aside from add/remove windows components or add/remove programs (which hasnt helped) there is a command-line uninstall, but i dont know what it is.

ive tried re-installing it / removing & re-installing and still it will not work at all.

[jonathan88]

Does anyone have the All Pictures section? I don't seem to have it but in the CNET review its listed here in the menu

[ev0|]

use system restore to remove it.

[NY1]

Does anyone know how to remove this blue bar?

[~D~]

It keeps crashing on my system :angry:

With crashing do you mean: Your computer just stops like when you remove your harddisk (when its on)? Cause then i have the same problem but it only happens if i drag (in circles) the window when i play movies.
