    Windows Media Player crashes upon opening




    /palmface

    Ok, I'm trying to watch my CBT Nugget videos for CCNA as I have been this week. I watch them on my desktop, which has a locally attached external HD with the videos sitting on there. I come to my laptop and access the external on my desktop via network share. This has been working pretty much all week long, until today.

    Now, when I try even playing 1 file, without trying to add them all to a playlist, it opens and it starts playing, but it crashes as shown above.

    Not sure what else to do. I've configured WMP to not use a proxy, reinstalled WMP using Optional Features... Anything else anyone can suggest?
