one thing that you could do, is install Schaps Advanced Config. then go to file associations and associate WMP as the defualt player for those files.

thanks a lot for the advise. I have installed it and tried to associate the WMP files but still the same issue exist. Or may be the way, i have tried is not correct. when i opened the file association, i get so many extensions and for each extension, a description is given. for mp3, the description is sompy player. I located the file that i wanted to play in windows media player by clicking the WMP extension and clicked ok. After that, i tried to open the song file, but the same problem happening. please advise

1. Get to the file association menu in Advanced config.
2. Locate the file that you wanted to associate(.mp3 in your case)
3. Single click on the file extension
4. Click on "Select Program"
5. Then the explorer will open up.
6. Go to the windows folder(takes some to time to load)
7. Locate the file that says WMplayer.exe or something like that, the one that has WMP's picture next to it.
8. Select it.
9. Now you should be back to the extension list.
10. Click on "Save"
11. Click Ok
12. Click "Done" on the Advanced Config mainscreen.
13. Do the Soft reset, when it asks you to.
14. When it rebbots, try it.

what version of advaned config do you have?
version 2.02.0.2.0. but it came with a cooked rom (Blue Elves 5.0).
Well I guess this version of advanced config is latest but I still can't find file type association in the list.
Do you think reinstalling advanced config will resolve?
