Gees,

i received the new windows media player upgrade (windows media player 11) but it cannot work now. Each time i launch it, it tells me that my copy of windows is not genuine. I wuz able to get some activation keys for windows xp SP2 anyway but the problems now are; i don't know if the keys are valid, how to change the key or if changing the present key will affect my data. this problem has been around for about a week. System restore solved the problem but it was short-lived, the player updated again again.

Need some help here, really

do u have an original version of windows or did u get it at otigba? well u could try other media players like itunes.

The WMP11 installer is a Self-Extracting Executable. Use a program like winrar to extract it to its individual component installers, and install each one by one. Only the parent installer (which has been extracted now) does the authenticity checking.

if you're using a pirated windows xp, then you need a pirated media player too. so search www.phazeddl.com for windows media11 +WGA cracked.

And while u are at phazeddl.com, also download some Trojans, Spyware, Adware, Crackz and P0rn onto your system! Didnt you know that?

@ Gridlock

yeah i know. That's why i use firefox browser and bitdefender antivirus. So if you'll be visiting sites like that you should aviod using internet explorer and get a strong antivirus like bitdefender antivirus(at the expense of your RAM). Then you're ready to be a pirate.

.

I think the problem is (may be when u formated ur computer u didn't insall a valid WMP.
U have to buy and install.
