I have an acer laptop with secondary function keys that have forward / back. pause and stop commands. Unfortunately, I use Nero to play all of my media now rather than windows media player. How can I change the access command default player from WMP to another?

Any help appreciated.

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs > Set Program Access and Defaults. Click the arrow next to custom, and under default media player, choose whatever you want and click ok.

you'll have to reassign the keys, try acer help page or get vlc player (plays everything ive ever seen), it'll replace wmp as the primary player, this function may also be available for nero

Youve copied them contained in the incorrect format the cds are high quality youve prob copied in mp3 or somthing else they want to be in wav format, until eventually you've a newish dvd that performs mp3 vehicle CDS are technically old so that you want to target again and burn music as a wav format

I use winamp and go into hotkeys - and enable global media keys, it works only in winamp, but that works better than nero.
