Sounds like WMP is in widowshade mode and it's going off screen because of a screen resolution problem. What resolution are you set at?

Just for feces and giggles, change the res to 1152x864 (if your monitor supports it), if still nothing, go 1 step higher (again, if your monitor supports it.) I wish I were a little more familiar with WMP, I rarely use it. If you still can't find it, I'll try to recreate the problem here.
