What is happening is that WMP is expecting that you are lazy and stupid, and is trying to do for you what you don't want done for you (naming them) by calculating a hash value (unique number based on the file) and then trying to find the same number in a database. If it can't find that number, it guesses. You can see how well it guesses.
Instead of Windows and WMP, I use PCLinuxOS and Dolphin and Amarok. Dolphin allows me to access devices as a storage device, which means I can just drag and drop, and Amarok lets me play my music my way. I almost never boot Vista anymore.
