How about uninstalling it then reinstalling it?
Do you have another media player trying to be the default player? (causing a conflict)

Solved: Windows Media Player won't open!!
For some reason my Windows Media player won't open at all. Whenever I click to open it all that happens is my computer makes a "ding" noise....and thats it. I also can't open any files that use Windows Media Player. If I do, the same thing happens.
What can I do to get it working again?

I'm not sure how to check and see if there's another player trying to be default. But still, how would that stop the program from even opening up. I mean...I can't even get the actual program to run at all!
right. well try the uninstall, then reinstall it. THEN make it your default.
Go to Tools>Options>file types. Check what you'd like it to "control".
Could be corrupt, perhaps.
As far as another progie trying to take control (be default) I'm referring to something like: RealOne or RealPlayer (what ever they are calling it these days)
