Your ipaq is a 3600 series, therefore it originally had pocketpc 2000 os and had been upgraded to pocketpc 2002. You need to track down the pocketpc 2002 upgrade cd from compaq. The WMP 8 original install is on that cd. The WMP 8 on MS site is an updated version and will not install without the presence of that original WMP 8 from the cd.

I have an iPAQ 3635 and it has Windows OS 3.0 installed which I understand is Pocket PC 2002. My iPAQ Media Player is version 4. Where can I find the updated version?

Aren't the versions different for desktops/laptops and PDA's? Are the really on the same version 8 for each? Is the download file really the same for both desktops and PDA's?
