a little help with vista and wmp 11 pls

after i upgraded to vista my wmp11 has gone really slow, it takes about a min to find each song and when theres about 30s left on each song it pauses about 3 or 4 times. This is really annoying... i have tried the songs on realplayer they are fine!!! (i just dont like realplayer)

any help would save me from cracking up.......

go to the windows medial player web site and download the latest version and install. or go to the vista update page and get the latest updates

are you files on an external hard drive.
