Ok so I was playing WoW and went to exit, when I got a blue screen on my computer and it restarted. After it booted back up, whenever I try to run WMP11 it takes up 100% of my usage. In the task manager it is the processes wmplayer.exe and wmpshare.exe taking up the combined 100%, although wmplayer makes up about 70% of it. All my other applications seem to have no problem. The first thing I tried of course was reinstalling WMP11, but apparently that is not possible on Vista. Any suggestions?
