> it shows kernel32.dll error,it seems some functions are missing
This is from using the wrong version of ieshims. You must use the Vista version.

Also, what system upgrades do you have installed on Vista?

BTW, just wondering, but why do you want to make WMP 12 work on Vista :dubbio:? AFAIK it doesn't have that many functionality updates... Also, I don't know if it would have mp4 support, seeing that it comes from the improved Media Foundation API found in 7.

Am I wrong?  Those api are added in platform update. 7 sp1 is another story .

Okay, thanks.

IE9-WindowsVista-x86-enu-final.exe:
  9.00.8112.16421 (WIN7_IE9_RTM.110308-0330)
  Link date 3/08/2011, Subsystem Ver 5.1

contains ieshims.dll:
  9.00.8112.16421 (WIN7_IE9_RTM.110308-0330)
  Link date 3/08/2011, Subsystem Ver 6.0

I don't know why ieshims.dll wouldn't get installed. Use 7zip 9.20 to extract it.

(I wonder what happens when IE9-WindowsVista-x86-enu-final.exe (ss:5.1) is run in XP?)

Re-test Wmplayer.exe in DW, then press F7 to Start Profiling.
 

doesnt seem like it would work,on windows 7 the same files are missing yet it works flawlessly,its some artificial block or something i think,system error points to kernel32.dll with or without any of the files/dlls
