Lock up

My new HP 1710, that came with Vista, and over a gig of RAM, keeps locking
up....especially when I minimize the browser....even the task manager is
affected...I added another gig of RAM, and it still continues...also, I have
been unable to play the XM radio player.it tells me I need to install
WMP...but then the install tells me that I already have a more up to date
version....and can't install WMP 11

Brand new HP? Call HP and let them worry about it.
