Birdy> well for some reason hardly anything to is a default for windows works for me :S this includes internet explorer (so i use firefox - is much much better anyway) and without internet explorer i cant update my computer :s is this a problem?
i also cant use the search function (start > search) and windows media player doesnt work
can you suggest to me which players you think are good? And yes, i have gotten sick of LW player after a day or so lol so now i just plug the compuer speakers into my Creative Zen (Zen Rocks!)

Hobo> Ooooh i see..... damn. Isn't iTunes only for iPods? And as for winamp, ive tried reinstalling and updating and everything but it still doesnt work. it was my favourite player but now i guess ill just have to look for another. ill try those threads Birdy suggested.

Thanks to both of you for your help
