I thought Media Player can't be really deleted as it already came with the system? Maybe in newer versions like Vista or 7 it already works better as one can choose from some other items to be removed but that's still not in XP (I also have Pro BTW). Or maybe you should have deleted first the Windows Media Format 11 Runtime; IIRC that was recommended on the Microsoft site when I was also trying to find out how to roll back to the previous version but in the end I've kept it as it is; LOL!

I wanted to know if I delete my media player from the program files on the c drive, would that be okay? I found media player by doing the following: start minue, control escape, r for run, c:\ for the drive, p for program files, w for windows media player. It is on the drive and I cant seem to get it to uninstall from the add remove programs. I did properties and it said it was installed on August 5th at 1 PM., the day I had my windows reinstalled. It is acting weird, ever sinse I got it, if I play a file in the media player and close the media player, the file still keeps going even when the media player is closed. I even look in the tasks minue to see if it is still running somewhere, it cant find it. So I have to reopen the file and hit control p to make it stop playing. Or I have to take the cd out if it is playing from the cd instead of just closing mediaplayer. I am starting to think my computer has a ghost in it.
