    Sound won't play in MediaPlayer after a link has been clicked in IE7.

    I am using Windows XP SP2 on Parallels Desktop 3.0 build 5582 on a Macbook Pro C2D 2,33 GHz, 2 GB RAM, MacOS 10.4.10.

    1. Start IE7. Go to any homepage.
    2. Start Media Player, start playing any song. The sound (usually) plays back.
    3. Quit Media player
    4. Click on a link on the page in IE
    5. Start Media Player, start playing any song. NO SOUND CAN BE HEARD!
    6. If IE is quit, MediaPlayer starts playing sound again after about 7-10 seconds.

    This does not happen with Firefox. Also, the problem doesn't occur *every* time, but maybe about 80-90% of the times. I have created a new virtual machine that has the same problem. I have tried both with and without Parallels Tools installed.

    Hello,

    please right-click on 'My Computer' in Windows, select 'Properties'. There you will see 'System' information. Please tell me what do you have written there.

    Best regards,
    Stacey
