| | Re: Windows Media player has stopped working Some large percentage of player crashes are due to bogus third party codecs or drivers, though, so if it is caused by that, he's just hiding the problem temporarily and it might crash Nero / GOMPlayer / DivXPlayer down the line. I totally respect switching players around by choice, but fleeing from crashes is potentially inadvisable until you can at least identify the crash. I'll try to help with that where I can. =) -- Speaking for myself only. See http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info.
