Vista - Windows Media Player 11 Issue

Just a quick question. Is it possible to repair WMP11 on a Vista PC?

My issue is this:

I have an MP3 Player which is properly detected within Device Manager as
well as My Computer. When I first purchased the Mp3 Player, WMP11 detected
it properly. Now. when I connect the Mp3 Player to my PC, WMP11 no longer
detects it. On the bottom of WMP11 (to the right of the controls), it will
say that it detected my MP3 Player, but it will not show up when I click on
the Sync button. The player came with it's own software and that properly
detects it. I have tried to uninstall the Mp3 Player from within the Device
Manager, disconnected it, then reconnected to have Vista reinstall the
drivers....same issue occurred.

Any ideas what or where the issue relies?

No you cannot repair windows media player without doing a repair
installation of the WHOLE OS!!!

you CAN do a system restore though and go back to the point it was working.

can you explain to me why you want to integrate it with windows media
player?
its just like a flash drive..

drag and drop the mp3 files using the windows explorer interface!
It should show up as a removable drive among the other local drives
