    WMP 12 problem... :/


    Ok, WMP 12 keeps making it self the top window. I dont really know how to explain but...

    1. I open WMP
    2. I start playing music (I've usually got it on random)
    3. I open a game or any other window.
    4. I get to a song I dont feel like listening to.
    5. Press the Fn+Right arrow key to change to the next song (I'm on a laptop)
    6. the game will usually exit out of fullscreen and WMP will pop up from being minimized. with the other windows it just forces itself to the front so I have to click the other window im using.

    I work with photoshop alot while listening to music, and i hate having this problem...
    It happens from time to time, usually I just restore my computer to the day before and it fixes the problem. But since i deleted my restore points right before this happened its not an option.. ive tried troubleshooting and anything I can think of.
    I even downloaded the full Windows 7 K and KN thing from the windows site, but it says my computer cant use this update (downloaded both the 64 and 32bit versions, I have 64bit) I like to listen to music while im playing my games but it makes it really hard to play an FPS when the window keeps being minimized every time i pause or change the song by using my Fn key. this has happened about 3 other times and was easily fixed.. but this time i have spent about 5 hours googling and looking for a fix. I cant seem to find one. Thanks in advance if you help me out.

    My best suggestion is to bind a different key to the next song/pause keys. Try using a combination of Keypad Enter + numbers keys.

    would you know how to do that...? because i really have no idea.. i tried the whole ctrl+p and stuff that was preset, but its gotta be in the WMP window to do it, i think i may just use winamp until its fixed...
