Error message when I try to rip a c.d

I tried to rip a c.d today and a message that reads:
Windows Media Player has encountered an unknown error. This can accur when
another program or operating system encounters a problem but does not
communicate the nature of the problem to the Player.
I stop the ripping progress and close all other programs running at the time
and yet it still happens... What the hell is happening here and how do I fix
the damn thing?? PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Is the first time you tried to rip a CD?
What file format and what bitrate are you trying to rip the CD to?
