Windows Media Player on an old computer?

[pcreddrose]

Hi! First post here, so I hope I got the right catigory. Please be
patient with me!

I have a newer computer running XP, and, of course, I have windows
media player 10. Now, I also have an older comp. running windows 98. It
doesn't even have WMP, just a dinky 'CD player'. As in, nooo saving
songs on my old computer.

Is there any way to get WMP10 on my old computer? It has no internet
axcess, thus my dilema. (It's at my other parent's house and awaiting a
AC cord, so I'm trying to find this out for when I do eventually get it
running.)

Thank you so much in advance for any help, sugestions, and such!

For Windows 98, you can install 9 and not 10:

Best to use something else anyway, like QCD or Winamp, WMP is horrid.

Possible but if Windows Media Player suits the needs, the others may be
"horrid".

Try JetAudio, it plays all media formats, including REAL w/o
spyware.

I like QCD, I did like winamp, until it got too big.

Not really horrid, but it is a drag on performance, especially I would
think with an older machine.

It is not very nice either, I prefered the older version before 7.
