I need some advice
 

I keep on having to reinstall windows media player 9, it keeps on getting fucked up and it just stops playing various formats for no reason.

can you suggest some other players you use that are better and have more options?

Thanks

Winamp, Quicktime, WMP 10

i don't like quicktime, I don't like WMP 10..

Maybe I might suggest a virus scan/etcetc before you decide it's the program's fault. Take a run through with updated definitions of SpyBot, SpywareBlaster, Ad-Aware, and a good virus scanner.

Then try Winamp. :)

Shareaza, Realplayer, Nero, Roxio...I don't really know which one is better, I use them all randomly

hah, yes thanks for that advice i have all those installed, and I had recently installed windows.. I don't know what's causing all this to be happening, I just reinstalled again and the .wmv format doesn't work for some reason.
