Hi,

I have Win XP Profession with built software of captioned player. I would
like to have windows media player in
old version on Win 98 SE. That is you need to download wave file and save
in your directory. The benefit is so that I can have listening offload line.
Is this possible to place in Win XP also co-existed both 2 versions. If
positive where to download Win98 media player program.

Thanks for your help
 
There are 2 options you can take.

Option 1)
Click start > run and type into the open box:
mplayer2
click ok and the old version (6.4) will open.
Go View > Options > |formats| and select wav or the formats you wish media
player 6.4 to work with. Click apply then ok.

Next time you open a wave file in internet explorer, it will open the
default player for that format which you have just set to Media Player 6.4

Option 2)
Instead of clicking on the link to open the wave file, right click on the
link and select 'save target as'. Save it and IE will begin downloading it.
You can then open it in which ever media player you like to play it offline.
