1) Go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs. Select Windows Media Player 9 Series from the list of entries (the text will vary based on what operation system your using), then Click Add/Remove.
2) Most likely, uninstalling will require a reboot. Go ahead and reboot.
3) When the system is back up, open a MS-DOS prompt. You can also do this by clicking Start->Run, then type CMD.
4) You'll need to navigate to the Windows system directory. This is different based on what Operating system your using. For Windows 9X, it's typically C:\Windows\System. For NT, it's typically C:\WINNT\System32 (yes you want the system32 directory for NT).
5) You'll need to type the following in one line at a time, and pressing enter between each:
regsvr32 /u /s mp43dmod.dll
regsvr32 /u /s mp4sdmod.dll
regsvr32 /u /s wmadmod.dll
regsvr32 /u /s wmsdmod.dll
regsvr32 /u /s wmspdmod.dll
regsvr32 /u /s wmvdmod.dll
This action removes the registry entries for each file that will cause Designer 1 to crash. Note however, that the files are not removed. But it is okay to leave them.
6) After the above steps are complete, reboot your machine, and startup Designer 1. You should now be okay!
Please note, that if you reinstall Windows Media Player 9, you'll need to do the above steps again!
