Hi, I have a problem with the above.
Whenever I open the program I get the following error message.

wmplayer.exe - Entry Point Not Found.

" The procedure entry point GetUMS could not be located in the dynamic link
library MSDART.DLL "
Pressing OK does not release the program, even Task Manager will not end the
task, the only way to resume work is to boot.

Could somebody please help.

Mike
 
Go to Start > Run and in the Run box copy, then paste, the following:

"C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player\setup_wm.exe"

Then hit the Enter key to reinstall Windows Media Player.

I tried the Carey Frisch solution. I have exactly the same problem but with WMP 8. I downloaded WMP 9 but it wouldn't install - the same entry point error message appeared
