Try running Windows Update.

Also, the problem may not be WMP 11 itself, but rather the media codec
being used. You may also want to download and install updated codecs for
your system.

And just for reference, the title of your posts should be indicative of
the problem. For example "Windows Media Player 11 freezes" will work
alot better than "I have a problem". Giving a descriptive title to your
post will help you to get a reply sooner, as generic post titles are
more often than not simply ignored.
