The original problem: WMP 6.4 "runs" but no audio is heard. But WinAmp 2.x,
IRfanview's player, and W98 Plus!'s CD Deluxe player all play audio just
fine!
Desiring to get WMP "fixed" inorder to support digital ripping, I downloaded
and installed WMP 7.1 (I good match for a 64meg, P1-200). Installation went
well. But the player behaves the same way v6.4 did - no audio is heard (and
yes.. the volume level is on and up).
Thinking that maybe an update (codec) would fix the problem, WMP's "Check
for updates" downloads and proceeds to install the update.. but after a few
seconds it generates a "setup_wm.exe performed an illegal operation". The
player still runs despite that, but there is still no audio.
What's the problem, and is there any way to get WMP to work?
