i tried to watch that mine bf2 video and my windows media player was all messed up. so i thried to watch something else and it was still my media player.

Are you sure the correct codex is being used to play the movie? Maybe the Media player is trying to use a version thats not quite right or outdated. This might cause the problems you are having... just a guess though.

Is it on EVERY video or just this one? What types of files are you playing? (divx, mpeg, mpg)

I've had trouble since I reformated and downloaded the new version of WMP. I was going to try and download a Codac pack and see if that fixed my problems... Girls aren't as attractive when you cant see their..a... face!

Glad you got it fixed. Sorry I didnt see this sooner. I would suggest loading the ace mega codec pack. This has every codec you'll ever need. Every time I format a pc, i immedately throw this on. Lets you watch anything. Highly suggested.
