Windown Media Player 9

I have Windowns ME with Windown Media Player. I have friends that send me to play and now it will not work. It will play that I have on file from two months ago. I receive a oxcood1199--cannot play file. I have downloaded Windowns Media Play 9 and sill does not play any files that my friends send me. What do I ned to do to correct the problem. Thanks

They may be using media player 10 or 11 and version 9 can't recognize the file type. Go to microsoft update and try Media Player 10 anyway. Much improve version from 9. Version 11 my not work with ME.
