You may not have enough spare RAM to be able to play music if you're doing something else at the same time.

I'm with dREamer on this. Windows Media player has become a memory sucking monster, and your MP3 CODEC maybe damaged also/either....
I always install the K-lite Mega pack as linked to by dREamer and use the Media player classic, which is basically Microsoft's Media Player 6.4, and now we are on version 11? and what does it do differently when it comes to playing music? NOTHING, everything added to it since has just served to make it use vastly more memory, overheat your video card with it's stupid graphics, and spy on what you are doing. Oh and it hit you with adverts!
With the pack you also get Real player and quicktime alternatives, so you can ditch those other bloated, spying, spamming monsters and still be able to play the files...to a higher standard!

I have that same problem. Its usually the cause of installing so many different codecs and or video players.
Sometimes installing the windows media player software again will fix this, or not. Download at microsoft.
If not, you can use another player called K-lite. Its a media player with classic style.

Go To WMP/ View or Tools/ options,
Select Formats/ Select All types and click OK
Then open the Mp3 files from WMP itself by Files//Open//FileName
Note: if the music files are in unsupported formats ie file types other than .wav, .mp3, .wma etc then the player will not play those files. Use Winamp or Sonique instead of WMP

if you are using it on a mac then forget it, it wont work. are you sure all your song files are mp3, because WMP wont play anything else. also make sure they are stored in files on your computer, not copied, becaseuit cant play them without the file base. change to winamp or iTunes if nothing else works.
