Hello everyone. First of all I love this site! unfortunately I am forced due to lack of knowledge and finances to use my windows pc.

finances??? are you joking? linux is FREE! gods, i have heard this excuse dry! get linux or stop moaning about windows! :D
quote:right now i have xp and i have windows media player telling me i can't play my wma files i got off kazza becasue they are corrupt and something about the license etc. so they are shot to hell.

so windows is fucked then? well how much worse could linux be?
quote:i want to get something else on my puter that i can play music files with.
--- End quote ---
Linux will do it, with xmms, and xine
quote:the less i have to do with microsoft the better.
--- End quote ---
Microsoft have yet to release a single byte of software for linux.
quote:A friend put xp on my puter and i guess it is pirated so no upgrades for me which sucks now back to media player.
--- End quote ---
some friend. now you're locked in to this piece of shit OS and you are too intimidated to get a real system...
quote:there are no uninstall options for it anywhere!
--- End quote ---
in true microsoft style.
quote:I tried to find uninstall but it doesnt seem to exist and yes i looked in hidden and system files.
--- End quote ---
you won't find it. it is designed to fuck your system if you forcibly uninstall it.
quote:any advice on alternatives to windows media player and a way to get it off my machine would be great. also i cannot boot to dos either. only in safe mode. just another lovely windows drawback.
--- End quote ---
you got it. sadly, the newer the version of windows you have, the less customisable features you will find.
quote:thanks! you guys are too cool to be help us newbies and novices :mad:
--- End quote ---
not true! how would we be cool, if we were too snobby to try and help people? besides, i know not very much, and i ask at least as many questions as give answers, and i think a lot of people are the same...
welcome to the boards, by the way...

YesIUseWindows,
sorry if some of us got on to your case to strong. I just that we try to keep these forums as warez free as possible, both for ethical and legal reasons.
So we discurage any sort of piracy and make, often empty threats :D , but ya, welcome to the forums!
flap:
We discourage "piracy" (to use your unfortunate propaganda term) to discourage the propagation of MS software, not because we have an ethical objection to harmlessly copying data.
