Troubleshooting
If your system status shows that the digitalphono music player is not installed, you must first download and install the digitalphono music player before you will be able to download and enjoy the music. 

If you already downloaded the digitalphono music player setup file Setup_dpc_102.exe, and the system status box says that the player is not installed, perhaps you didn't execute the setup file. Check here for instructions

If you've already downloaded and installed the digitalphono music player setup file            Setup_dpc_102.exe, and you're using a Netscape browser, close all of  your Netscape windows, restart Netscape, and try again.
