    Is Windows Media Player still running? If so can't you turn it off?

    You can check by bringing up the Task Manager (By holding down Ctrl-Alt-Delete). Check that it isnt in the applications tab, then check the Processes tab for "wmplayer.exe". If it is there, select it then press end process.
  • Thanks jonny for your help. The file "wmplayer.exe" is not in either. Could you please help further. Much obliged. George.
