media player problems

[Guest]

not really a 'new user', but do need 'layman's-type' help.
when burning audio cds, the program usually freezes the computer. i figured
i should probably reinstall the program. i went to 'add/remove programs and
selected 'windows media player' under 'service pack 2 updates' in the list.
i was informed that a rollback was necessary, so i allowed it, and was then
advised a restart was necessary in order for the changes to take effect.
when i restarted, media player was no longer on the programs list in
'add/remove programs', and when i tried to open media player,it was still
series 10 [i had presumed 'rollback' meant series 9 would be there instead],
and i received this: an internal application error has occurred'. what would
be my next step, as i cannot even access the program??

thank you in advance--you folks have been of immense assistance when i've
posted regarding previous problems...
