Hello
Have you tried uninstalling it and reinstalling

controlpanel
add remove programs

Not sure if it will work on Vista but it's worth a try:

One solution would be to go to Start > Run and type in "msconfig". Go to the Startup tab and uncheck any Windows Media Player processes. This will prevent them from starting with the system.
