Stale Metadata

Once I add mp3 files to my music library and try to edit
the information using Right Click edit, the little window
pops up where you can enter all the information for the
file (title, year, artist, lyrics, etc.) So I enter all
the info and hit 'ok' then an error comes up saying that
it failed because the metadate is stale. What gives?
 
That should mean that your system clock is set wrong. WMP checks to see if
it can right to the file, but the file is already marked with a later time
stamp, and so WMP cancels the write since the data it is trying to write is
thus out of date.
