Itunes won't play songs

I'm having trouble with my itunes library. I cannot play songs on it, it doesn't matter what I do, but absolutely nothing will play. I am currently downloading Itunes 8, wondering if the version I'm working off is too old. If anyone can help me that would be great...we need our music!!

HP, Windows Vista

I'm having a similar problem. ITunes opens fine, I can see my full library, etc;, but when I press the "play" button after selecting a song, it just won't play. Have uninstalled and reinstalled ITunes and Quicktime to no positive effect. Problem seemed to arise after installing Windows Vista Service Pack 1, but not sure there's a connection.

I'm running the latest version of Windows Vista and ITunes 8.0.2.20.
I had the problem where iTunes does not move from 0:00 when trying to play a song in the library. I fixed the problem by following the suggestion posted by Suffolkdave, "go into the Control Panel, select 'Uninstall a Program', find Quicktime, and select 'Repair' on the toolbar."

I am alos having this problem. It first occured when I upgraded to 8.0, advice from Apple for was uninstall itunes and reinstall - this worked. But after itunes automatically downloaded the latest update it no longer plays any music. Have tried reinstalling but no luck. I don't think it is related to SP1. I hope someone finds a solution soon!

I have this same exact problem! The songs are all just stuck at 0:00 with all the information above like it's ready to play, but won't. I also have Windows Vista and I'm not sure if all of you are also having this issue, but sound won't play throughout my computer. Any videos that I play as well as choppy and slow. They used to play perfectly fine and so did my iTunes. I have no idea what happened.
