First thing,your XP must be illegal else WMP11 would have installed smoothly.
Secondly,you can try System Restore to get back your WMP10.

for confermation try at microsoft.com search for 'how to tell' in search box.if it tells iilegal then is iilegal

If you're "vendor" had installed a legal copy, you would have the CD+Manual with the shiny Microsoft certificate stuck on it sitting somewhere in your home.

no nothin like dat....i dun have anythin wit me, my vendor didnt gave me any...newez ive figured out mine is illegal...but really cant help it...

thanx guys
cheers!

Well, if he charged you for the original just report him if he doesnt comply on cash-back... and whats more, you will get a cheap license from MS by doing so

It does not matter if the vendor has a legal copy of windows.....

U should have one with the lisence....

So u cannot install WMP 11.....

H

can u believe i have 2 copies of xp pro (Licensed) , one xp home licensed ,98 oem .

i fell lucky as i got all for free as gifts .

you can try validating ur pc go to microsoft.com and download a plugin if that can help i m not sure

ya thats chargable at microsoft.com ...somewere round 6500 bux.... my vendor never gave me any cover, license etc. wit pc....he had my os pre-installed b4 delivering my system... it wasnt licensed to me i guess

cheers

JUST SUE UR VENDOR....

k, i know it doesn't happen much in India but u cud try talking to ur vendor in giving u an original Windows.....
but still, DID HE CHARGE U? if he didn't then u have no right to tell nething to him as free sware is mostly pirated and this is wwindows xp so it sure will be pirated if it is free

thats d point...he didnt charged me anythin for it...he said he wl supply d system wit s/w installed for free....

cheers
