Windows Media Player Wizard - VS 2008 - Fails to generate project

I am trying to get te WMP wizard runing in VS 2008. I followed the readme instructions in the Windwos 7 SDK but when I try to create a project using he wizard it fails. This is my wmpwiz.vsz fiel contents:

VSWIZARD 7.0
Wizard=VsWizard.9.0

Param="WIZARD_NAME = Windows Media Player Plug-in Wizard"
Param="ABSOLUTE_PATH = C:\Data_Root\Windows_7_SDK_Samples\multimedia\WMP\Wizards\wmpwiz"
Param="FALLBACK_LCID = 1033"

Any advice on how to get this working please?

again from the readme did you copy these?

Locate the following three files:
wmpwiz.vsz
wmpwiz.vsdir
wmpwiz.ico
Locate the folder where you installed Visual Studio. Expand the folder to view its subfolders, and locate a folder named vcprojects.

Thank you so much, I thought I had all those parameters updated however, if you look at my original post, you will see the following line was incorrect:

VSWIZARD 7.0
Wizard=VsWizard.9.0

When I changed this to your example:

VSWIZARD 7.0
Wizard=VsWizard.VsWizardEngine.9.0

The wizard now runs correctly.

again, many thanks,
Sid.
