Re: Media Player keeps ripping, even though I'm using Real Player

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Did you disable the option to "Rip CD when inserted"? Did you change your
AutoPlay/Autorun properties in Windows and tell it to use RealPlayer? Did
you tell RealPlayer to be the default for CD Audio playback and Ripping?

If Windows doesn't have another program associated for the task, it uses
what it knows is there, Windows Media Player.
