I’ve used WMP11 for more than a year with no problems. About a month or two
ago it stopped working. There’s no error messages it just starts to play a
song from my library and, after a few seconds, the sound cuts out. The bar
continues to move across, just no sound. I have no problem playing a disc.
I can stream music and video with sound. I just can’t play anything from my
library. I have files copied to a thumb drive before this started. The same
thing happens when I try to play them. Anything new that I rip or download
does the same thing. I installed another player and there’s no problem with
any of the same files playing complete. I upgraded from Vista 32 to Vista 64
last year. I have both versions of WMP11 and they both do the same thing. I
would prefer to use ’11 for everything and not have another player. I’ve
tried both MS and my PC’s OEM for help but no solution. I can’t download
WMP11 and if I reinstall Vista I’ll have to wait for literally dozens of
upgrades including SP1 and SP2. Anybody have any ideas why this happens and
/ or what I can do about it.
