WMP crashes when switching to full screen

Suddenly Windows Media Player 11 started crashing when I switched to full screen mode. At first I thought it was a driver problem, but then I remembered I've changed video acceleration to None in order to take screen shots.
Indeed, setting video acceleration (Tools menu -> Options -> Performance) back to full solved the problem.



BTW, my primary video player is VLC.
