Default wmp10 does not shut down properly

My WMP10 does not shut down even after quitting the application. The
"wmplayer.exe" process continues on and I have to go into Windows Task
Manager to kill it. Anyone has a fix to this?

Thanks,
Dave

This should be a driver locking up. Either
http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#vdriver
or
http://zachd.com/pss/pss.html#dsound
should fix you up. Which one does, and what bad driver was it?

You're right. It was my geforce video driver.

Thanks for your help.
