: This is wrong.  Try this instead:

: 	char *args[] = {
: 	  "mpxplay",
: 	  "mpxplay",
: 	  0
: 	};

: You need to mention "mpxplay" twice: once for spawnv to find the program, 
: the other time as argv[0] to be passed to the program.

But he did:

     spawnv(P_WAIT, "mpxplay.exe", args);


Right,
