Windows Media player 11
In our network with Windows 2008 DC's, many of our XP PC's with Media Player
11 can not play XM Radio or mms url's or even wmv files off the internet. On the flip side, many of our desktop PC's can. Even two of our Domain Admins have this issue. It's doesn't appear to be a firewall, GP or web filter problem. It also doesn't appear to be a file association problem either. Now if a one of the "affected" Dom Admin logs into a PC with a local admin account eveything that didn't work now works. Any thoughts? |

No local "PC" firewall, Watchguard is used for the network. Waht's even more
interesting, is if you stand up a new/old PC that has service pack 2, there is no problem. After installing SP3 for XP things change....
