Howdy folks,

I have downloaded and installed the new Microsoft Windows Media Player 7.0 beta on my Pismo 400 with 192MB RAM and every time I start it up, it comes back with a Type 1 error and refuses to run! If that's not bad enough, I tried it once again just now and it completely locked up my Powerbook with a CHK restart error! The only option I had was to restart. Help?!? I am welled versed on the Mac but this one has me stumped!

Thanks...

ps. I had the exact same problem on my Powerbook 3400c?!? Any thoughts?

Thanks again...

It's simple. First beta of a Microsoft product. That means, don't use.

I admit I haven't extensively used WMP 7, but with the use I have had with it, it hasn't been that bad. I like it a lot better then WMP 6. Though what I give the early beta's of WMP 6 is it's name. Remember the days when it was called "Microsoft Media Player for the Macintosh" I was happy then.
