Windows Media Player 11 has stopped working-Vista

I recently upgraded my CPU from an Amd Athlon FX dual core to a AMD PhenomII
x4.

As soon as I restarted my computer I tried to start WMP 11 and as soon as it
pops up it says "Windows Media Player has stopped working" then no solution
was found and it closes the program

I have heard that this might be because i just changed processors, but im
not seeing a fix to this problem any help would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Windows Media Player 11 has stopped working-Vista

Changing certain hardware in the PC (including CPU, network card and
hard disk) can change the 'signature' of the PC. It's a process called
invididualisation, which identifies the PC uniquely so providers can
sell you DRM protected tracks.

The crash you've seen never seems to sort itself out properly without
intervention - if you close WMP and all your web browsers, then open a
single copy of Internet Explorer and visit this page :
http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/...en/indivit.asp

Is the button there clickable ? If you hit 'Upgrade' and it succeeds,
is the music playable now ? If not - take a look at ZachD's
instructions on how to reset the DRM system on your PC :

Wow, thankyou so much. what I ended up doing was going to the
http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/...en/indivit.asp link after I put
my original processor back in and upgrading. Then i reinstalled the new
processor and it worked. This helps a lot.
Thanks again.

I cannot understand how I go about having my questin answered. Can some one
enlighten me with a simple solution? Thanks

Re: Windows Media Player does not work

are you "Yoistehkp", the original poster, below ?
If not, you probably have a specific but entirely different question.

It's best to start a new conversation (thread) rather than try to
hijack unrelated discussions, as your messge will tend to be buried in
the other conversation.

When asking for help, the best approach is to be as specific as
possible in describing your problem - including what type of file or
content you're trying to access (e.g. online in a web page, a DVD
disk, playing a CD, accesing music or video tracks in your PC's media
library and so on)

Also try to describe as well as you can, what steps you that led up to
you encountering a problem.
