I have installed WMP5.1,Mplay32 from Windows XP on my Windows 7,windows Vista and now on Windows 8. I did this just by copying the Mplay32 program file found in Windows/system 32 on Windows XP onto Windows,system32folder on Windows7,Windows Vista and windows 8. And WMP5.1 is now running on Windows 7,Windows Vista and Windows 8. But WMP 6.4,Mplayer2 the other media player does not work on Windows 7,windows Vista or Windows 8,only on Windows XP.

I have installed Mplay32(media player 5.1 from Windows XP) on my Windows 7. And it is working on Windows 7 without any problems. I did this by copying the file from my Windows XP computer onto my Windows 7 computer.I have tried it on Windows 8,and Mplay32 is working on Windows 8.

I have also installed the Windows XP Sound Recorder on both Windows 7 and Windows 8,the same way by copying the program files over from Windows XP. It is possible to run most Windows XP programs on Windows Vista,7 and 8 this way. But you must have a Windows XP computer in order to copy the files from. Andrea Borman.
