If this occurs only while playing "some tunes," and it's the same tunes
each time, I'd have to suspect that those specific files are corrupted
and should be deleted.

After you removed WMP11 and before you re-installed it, did you verify
the the tunes played normally? Can they be played with any other media
player?

Also, have you verified that your system meets WMP11's minimum system
requirements:
