Ok, i'm new to vista too.

click start, tyoe in 'default programs' and select it once it shows up.
Click on windows media player on the left, and select 'set this program as
default'.

It sounds like some other program you installed may have tried to hijack all
the things WMP normally handles just fine. Hope it works! besides that, I'd
suggest checking for newer video card drivers.
