I installed WMP9 on my new Windows 2000 Professional
system at work. When I launch WMP9, I get nothing more
than the "basic" play, pause, stop, etc. buttons. There
is no taskbar (no, I don't have it hidden), I can't go to
the media library, and I can't display the graphic
equalizer. WMP9 acts like a basic, dumb video/music
player. This is nothing at all like the WMP9 I have
installed on my home PC that runs under ME.

Am I missing drivers, or is this how WMP9 is supposed to
work under 2000 Pro?
 
It allows me to go through the motions of selecting full
mode and turning the menu bar on, but that doesn't do
anything.

I can ask the local admin if they have it locked. Not
sure what that motive would be though. The PC was
configured by our Corporate Desktop group, so if the admin
doesn't know, I doubt I can even get to the right person
to ask.

Thanks for the reply.
