WMP11 uninstall
The issue with Windows media player 11 is that for almost all hardware which was released before WMP11 new audio drivers are needed. Depending on your hardware (laptop or desktop) the new driver may either install a new driver or just disable audio enhancements.
I suggest that before reloading windows you try to uninstall WMP11 if you had installed it just for Hoster. I run IE6 and WMP11 on my XP main laptop so that I can make sure that at least it works with IE6. On another XP machine I run IE6 and WMP9 and make sure it works there but it is not my main development machine and doesn't mean that it will run in all IE6/WMP9 computers because there are always OS differences due to Microsoft service pack system.
Uninstalling WMP11 is an option if the audio sounds terrible after you install it and can't find your audio drivers. I did it myself on my IE6 and WMP9 system. For my IE6/WMP11 system my audio was choppy after I installed WMP11 so I downloaded the latest audio drivers and now the audio is great.
