i was told to reinstall my OS because my windows media
player installation was corrupted and reinstalling will
fix this problem, i was told to use a start up disk then
reboot and was told once the prompt appears to type CD
C:\windows\options\install press enter
when command promt appears type SETUP

my question is when i reboot with the start up disk it
tells me to choose these, so wich one do i choose???

1. Help
2. start up with cd support
3. start up without cd support
4. minimal boot

DO NOT reinstall ME to cure your WMP problems - it's not required, and you
may end up with worse problems than you currently have!!
Instead, reinstall WMP 9 over itself.
