However ..... This restored me to version 6.4, and I can't seem to install version 7 - I get a Windows Media Component Setup dialog box with an empty list of components that will be installed, and the 'next' button disabled. Description reads "You have the latest version of the Windows Media Player and all its components. No upgrade is available at this time." Well, at least 6.4 is functional and doesn't crash XP.
