Try this....

Navigate to C:\Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 and copy wmploc.dll to C:\Windows\System32.

Try installing it again after you have copied the dll.

No problem!

Right click on "My Computer", choose "Explore". In the left hand section, click on your C: drive. Click on the Windows folder, then the ServicePackFiles folder, then the i386 folder.

Once in the i386 folder, look for wmploc.dll in the right hand section where all the files are. Once you have found wmploc.dll, right click on it and choose "Copy".

In the left hand section, locate and click on the System32 folder. Right click in the right hand section, a menu should pop up... choose "Paste". That should paste the file into the System32 folder. If it asks to overwrite the existing file... answer yes.

This will only work if you have updated WindowsXP to at least Service Pack 1. Have you installed any Service Packs? If you are unsure, right click on "My Computer", choose "Properties". The System Properties box should pop up with the "General" tab selected. Under the System heading... you should see your version of Winodws and whether or not you have installed any Service Packs. It will say either Service Pack 1 or Service Pack 2.

Did you try to uninstall the previous WMP10 installation first? Go to Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel. Uninstall WMP10. Reboot. Try to download and install it again after that. Let me know how it goes.
