Hi Chris,

I use foobar2000, which works very well.  Take a look at:

Subject: [access-uk] Winamp and Windows Vista

Hi all,
First of all, sorry for the cross posting. I need urgent help, please, see 
below.
I had major problems using Winamp with Windows Vista such that I had to 
uninstall it and use Windows Media Player for now. However, I don't like 
Windows Media Player; it's too cluttered, and not as keyboard friendly as 
Winamp. The major problems I had were:
1. Every time I close Winamp, I am asked to send an error report to 
Microsoft. This did not happen on my old XP machine.
2. Some dialogues, such as the Winamp Preferences dialogue box and Jump to 
Time dialogue box, are not as accessible as they were on my old XP machine.
I've tried to use both the modern and classic skins, with the same results.
This was using Winamp 5.5.
I am asking, therefore, has anyone successfully used Winamp on a Windows 
Vista machine? If not, can you suggest an alternative player that is both 
keyboard friendly and not so cluttered?
Thanks in advance for the help.
