I know little of this because I have never had this problem.
I did find some information that might help you understand your problem.

What does the COM Surrogate do and why does it always stop working? - The Old New Thing - Site Home - MSDN Blogs

Just a question, what media do you use when playing movies?

After i am on my system for about 5 minutes or less it pops up and says it has stopped working. it also does it when I plug in a DVD to watch a movie. Nothing happens I just downsize it and keep watching but its a pain oh and its windows media.

What ShoTTas was asking is where is the movie trying to watch. On a DVD? HDD? Something else?

Is your Windows Media Player up-to-date, try to update your media player, there could be some problem on your codec that causes the error.
Or download-install VLC Player, where it recognizes many kinds of media with various extension files.
you can also keep if up-to-date or keep it as it is.
