Here are some links to sort it out.

Troubleshooting help (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/mp10/errors.aspx)
Look down to the middle of the page. Most errors are labelled with a ID, match the ID of your error with the same one on the link to skip straight to your problem.

WMP works fine for me....I like it better than winamp or realplayer, mainly because i've used the same damn player for like 10 years.

I use WMP just because I'm too lazy to be bothered with other players, and WMP has never given me any significant problems, other than the fact that it's a huge resource hog.

I use iTunes for 3 years now and I never had any problems :)

I use WMP, but it's hard to get it to sound good. :(

Off to work for me now... :(
