Windows Media Player and DRM's

hey all,

I started my Windows Media Player and it went thru my whole playlist to find a song to play. Then I got this error:

I click on the details button and get a pop-up that says "no help is available" with a web help link under it. I click on that and it gives me the error number, C00D2751. I enter that into a Knowledge Base search and come up with this page:

Great! Now I'm getting somewhere! Wrong!

I open Explorer and un-hide all the files. There is no C:/WINDOWS/DRM folder. I open up search for the two files that they say to delete. Not there. Ooooo Kkkkk
I then clicked on the link that will put licenses on my machine, I think? It come up with this website that says:

I accept it by clicking the accept button and it takes me to another website that says "Page Cannot be Displayed "
Went to The Windows Media Player Download site and installed a licensing program for converting to XP and a DMRWIZARD.EXE that told me I didnt have the right program to run this .exe file. The only thing I can see that has anything to do with licensing.


OS - WME
Version of WMP 7.01

Thanks,

Take a good look thru Here and see if any of the links help.

Are you having the problem with all your music or just a few? The whole DRM thing is so music can be locked and only someone with a proper license (which is on the CD (or whatever) I think) can play it.

 

Hi anglin_fool,

Try this:
1) open WMP
2) click TOOLS and select OPTIONS
3) click the CD AUDIO tab
4) UNcheck "Enable Personal Rights Management "
5) click APPLY
6) click OK

BTW.. While you are there, make sure ALL the other four boxes are checked. You MAY also want to adjust the quality slider for copying music.
