Windows Media Player will not open

by didiharu Feb 15, 2011 10:00PM PST

My default is WMP for playing CD's and DVD's. I have a Toshiba NB 305 netbook, Windows 7. I copied a DVD from a friends LG Portable Super Multi drive (her computer is XP - in case this might be important?)to my external HD. Something from my Norton popped up earlier regarding GEAR software, but I did not understand it and so dismissed it, at the advice of a friend...I am not so computer savvy. Since then I cannot even access my Windows Media Player. Can anyone help me? didimaya

Since Norton is involved

And I have yet to find one version of Norton to be exactly like the next, for a test, disable Norton and see if it works again.
