Have an HP 854n with MCE 2004, installed WinXP SP2 then WMP10. Everything
seem to work excepted 'My Music'. I thought I had put all the HP patch (HP
warns to install prior to SP2) but you need to drill down in each an every
patch to find out. Hopefully all relevant patches are dated of Aug-2004 or
after.

Fix:

1. uninstalled WinXP SP2
2. uninstalled WMP10
3. Installed WMP9
4. Verified 'my music' was working
5. Installed pre-SP2 relevant patches from
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareList?product=306210&lang=en&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&os=228

6. Verified 'my music' was working
7. Installed WMP10
8. Verified 'my music' was working

Everything works great now and some other issues have been taken care by the
same token.
