When I try to play an audio file in WMP 9, the song will
start out ok then a seconf later the pace of the song
will start to slow down. The problem does not affect
video. I have all the latest drivers for my sound card
and the player worked fine with audio for about a week.
Any answers out there?
 
This should only happen for MP3 files if you have 'ctmp3.acm' on your
system.

covers how to fix this in the bit about 'ctmp3.acm' .

Yeah that did the trick. If anyone else reads this and
has been having the same problem, the fix is to run a
search on your system for ctmp3.acm and change the file
type to a .bak file(ctmp3.bak). Thank you very much for
the help. I would have been pulling my hair out for days
on this one.
