    Yeah, I’ve seen that happen—sometimes Windows just hangs when pulling drivers. Usually the quickest fix is to cancel, reboot, and grab the latest media driver straight from the laptop/graphics card maker’s website instead of waiting forever.

    Hi Sumit thank you.

    It's the Windows Media Player and it's stuck on 'checking system requirements'
