***STOP: 0x0000001E(0xC0000005, 0xBA4F7E7A, 0x0000001, 0x289F0008) KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
***Address BA4F7E7A base at BA4AC000, DateStamp 3c8d56b8-nv4_disp.dll

Need more info.
Are you playing the song from a CD, from the hard disk?
It could be as simple as a corrupt file. Have you tried replacing the file. If you're playing a CD is the CD damaged?

I'm playing it from the hard drive. When it happened, I had accidently maxamized the "visualizer" thingie, and it was minimizing when the crash occoured.

does it still give you that error or just happen once,(i know it sounds like a dumb question but your wording led me to ask)

It sounds like you have a problem with WMP. Have you tried getting the latest version of WMP?
I have experienced weird errors in the past with WMP. Expecially with Dell because they preload MusicMatch on their systems. I have also had conflicts with screen savers based on WMP causing weird memory errors.

Its your graphics. Check Nvidia drivers are installed properly. Reinstall if necessary or download a newer version.

Good point. It never occurred to me that it could be a graphics issue.

With the BSOD error you reported earlier, I'm thinking you have some bad hardware somewhere in your system. Maybe the memory. Did you get the other BSOD problem resolved?

nv4_disp.dll was the clue for me. Although other software could be using the driver badly.
