Midi files won't play in Vista Media Player 11

KI recently bought a new Vista-based computer. All music files play well, but
my Midis do niot play at all. I went to Tools -> Options ...there's no Files
tab! How do I get my Midis to play?

I installed Windows 7 today and with it came Media Player 12. Now the story
changes: Windows Media Player 12 will not play my MIDI files from the
libraqry. However, if I go to my My Midi folder in Documents and click on an
individual MIDI song it plays in a small versio of the player. Still, these
same MIDI files will noit oopen in the Library of the player. ???

Works fine on my Win7 system. What happens when you try to play it?
