This didn't work for me, but I have another solution.
Hello,
I thought this might help somebody, since no solution I have found on the web has worked for me.
The Wmploc.dll file was not the problem for me.
I have tried numerous "solutions", but no matter what I did to the registry, or how many times I installed, then uninstalled WMP11, still the same message would come up : "This version of Windows Media Technologies is incompatible with this version of Windows XP.
I still don't know know how this could be so, because I have the Windows XP SP3.
And uninstalling SP3, in order to install WMP10, didn't work for me either.
So, you see, I have tried numerous manipulations, some which were illogical, but, since I didn't what the problem was, with Microsoft it could have been anything -and to no avail! lol
Finally I copied the temporary files extracted then used by the WMP10 installer. For me the folder was :
C:\Documents and Settings\[Your.Account.Name]\Local Settings\Temp\IXP000.TMP
All the files for the installation are in it. I tried every executable there was, but I think you only have to run "setup_wm.exe".
And WMP10 was installed!
Personally, I much prefer WMP10 than the 11. I hope this will be of use to someone! :-D
Farewell
