| | Re: WMP 11 DVD identification I started reading your link and found exactly what I was looking for near the top where you wrote "A handful of fixes for it are available here." The "here" link took me to Windows WMP Solution Center, which I suppose has the answers. I say "I suppose" cause when I slipped in a DVD to try ALT+CTL+DEL to get out of the full-screen mode, oddly enough, just pressing ESC got me out. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I played and ripped from a regular music CD before trying this. Odd things like that are not all that unusual with all things Microsoft. Thanks again! -- Thanks, Alex "zachd [MSFT]" wrote: Quote: > > It auto-full-screens - does it work if you go back to normal non-full-screen > mode? > > -- > Speaking for myself only. > See http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html for some helpful WMP info. > This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights. > -- > "Alex" <st7alex@xxxxxx(donotspam)> wrote in message > news:1D38FC0C-8C57-4D6E-A77F-5CD0E33A67E0@xxxxxx Quote: > >I recently bought a new computer with Vista.
