Frequently Asked Questions...
Why does Windows Media Player make my laptop crash?
Randomly everything will freeze, I'll get a nanosecond of sound looping over and over really quickly, like machine gun fire, and the only way to get it to unfreeze is to restart my computer from the button.
I have Windows Vista, and Windows Media Player 11 and I'm this close to putting my fist through my monitor.
Answer:
Re-install the latest version of WMP, FIRST.
Still stuck? Then likely: Vista is corrupted, or it's a Device Driver issue, or your PC is infected with Malware (use the Discover Tab for more info).
This works every time:
Read your laptop User Manual to learn how to BURN your own Vista Recovery Disks, and how to return your PC to "Factory New" condition.

Sincere efforts are made to ensure minimum downtime in case of a disaster. Financial impact of data loss to a company includes the loss of business, low productivity and most importantly the cost re-creating the data.

Data Protection and Recovery Strategies: An effective backup strategy is essential if your business is to be safe from the effects of data loss. With careful consideration and planning you can create a backup schedule that provides full protection of your data with minimum disruption to your business.
How to Back Up? Data can be easily backed up on the various storage mediums like CD's, floppy disks, tape drives, Zip drive and hard drive. Prompt backups of the vital data information can be easily taken with the Microsoft Windows built-in NTBackup utility (.bkf file) and Symantec's VERITAS Backup utility. In data loss situations the corrupted or lost data can be restored from the back up copy.
