    hey guys for some reason my windows media player is slowing my computer right down it used to work fine but not anymore. In the task manager it shows up as using between 40 - 90% of my cpu and about 30,000 for mem usage.Any help?

    The only thing i can think of is rolling back The media player thhen installin it again

    Here is a link to a guide that shows u how to do it.

    http://www.auditmypc.com/uninstall-media-player10beta.asp

    And then it will roll back to 9 and then just press update and it will find 10 again and install again...
