hello i have a problem...
i am running windows vista ultimate x64 and now windows mediaplayer 11 is
not in earo look but in basic??
no glassy layout just dark and black also when i have multiple applications
running lest's say ie7 and media player and i switch between the both ie7 is
nice and glass and when i make mediaplayer active my taskbar turns black in
standard look but when i minimize mediaplayer again than glass will re appear
in my ie7 screen
also tried the x32 version but problem persists
does someone have any idea on how to solve this because i really liked the
earo player at work on a ordinary vista machine (not x64)
 
Is there some particular reason you need to have the WMP showing except to
start? Do you have the problem when you put it as a toolbar on your
taskbar. It would appear that some component on your computer is not up to
full aero, the video card or cpu etc.

Specs should be no problem, do you have the latest drivers for your video
card?
