• stop the Windows media player 11 to play without apparent reason

  In recent weeks, my Windows Media Player 11 has been rather eccentric. Sometimes (and apparently with increasing frequency) WMP stop just playing the track, I'm playing, it does seem to be some tracks and occurs only with files Mp3. I have updated codecs and WMP itself was already perfectly up to date as much as WMP 11 can be updated. The system is not 'suspended' and I don't have any problem reading Mp3 Zune player. I don't know why it does this, it gets worse and worse still, at first it was once a few everyday now its several times a day. I did spies and antivirus software and found nothing.

  I am running Windows Vista 64-bit with SP2 and all other updates are current as well as for Windows and installed everything.
  Motherboard: Asus M4A785-M
  Audio use onboard VIA VT1708S
  8 GB of system RAM
  1.2 TB of free hard drive space (checked to find errors, also using the sd card to play MP3s from and still has this problem)
  If the thing is needed let me know.
  Thank you!
  Edit: I forgot to mention that before this WMP started getting lag to load anything, I load wmp and the video or music does not start for about 10 seconds. All other works very well with no latency.

• Move the Windows Media Player files to another external hard drive

  The hard disk that contains the files from my Windows Media Player 10 is dying.  I need to move the data to a new hard drive that I bought, but have not yet connected to my PC.  Old and new external hard drives are plug-and-play.

  I have a lot of additional information to the library and want to be sure that I don't lose in the process.  However, I have not found anything in the documentation that tells me how to move my database from one hard disk to another.  Can anyone help?

  If music files are in MP3 or WMA format, so most of the information is also stored in the files themselves, so that these information will be retained when the files are moved. There are a few fields that are not stored in the files, such as play account, custom fields and possibly star ratings. In order to preserve these fields during the movement of the library, you can use the backup of the metadata tool.
