The new software I installed gave me the QuickTime player aswell, which became my default video player for some reason, so I need to know how to make Windows Media Player my default video player. Im using Windows XP if it makes any difference.

Find a video file on your machine, on it, choose "Open with", then "Choose program", in the list that pops-up, choose "Windows media player", then check the box next to "Always use this program for this type of file". :)
