Re: Windows Media Player Has Stopped working

Zach,

Well, it was happening also with some USB flash drives as well.. The end result was, an upgrade install of Vista on top of itself corrected the problem.. One thing that was evident before I did that was whenever I would plug the device in, wmplayer.exe would run -- whereas now after the repair install of Vista, WUDFHost.exe runs instead.. I no longer get the crash in wmplayer.exe and the device syncs much quicker with Rhapsody..

Does that shed any light on what may have been causing the problem? FWIW, before I did the repair install, the "Windows Driver Foundation - User-mode Driver Framework" service was set to start automatically, but I never saw the .exe run in the processes..

Thanks,
Rick

that that driver might be buggy. Is there updated driver/firmware available
from Sandisk here?
