Finally had a chance to play with 7, and I'm impressed for the most part. However, in Vista I was able to minimize WMP and have a little toolbar on the taskbar with a small window that shows whatever is being played.
In their infinite wisdom, MS seem to have removed this nifty little feature. I've followed a few guides roughly the same as this one. All end with WMP being borked and telling me to visit Windows Update to fix the problem.
The entire reason I went from XP64 to Vista was because of this niggle, and I use the feature for most of the time I'm on my comp. I'd had to dump Win7 and go back to Vista just becuase of this.
Any suggestions?
