Hi Folks
Recently I've been getting a problem where whenever I try and run video from desktop, whether it be from media player, realplayer, quicktime etc. the computer near freezes up and I get 98-99% cpu usage on whichever player I'm running.
This happens with video being displayed in websites too.
I have all the current drivers / versions. I'm lost. My computer is no slouch either with a 6600gt vid card to boot.
Please help! :cry:

Hi
It just looks like video codec issue or video drivers incompatibility.
Have you tried playing any kinda game. ? Does that work fine ? If that works fine then sure its the problem with the codecs.
Also Check your HD, if the associated files are fragmented, your media
applications may not run smoothly. Try CHKDSK and do a run System Defragger on the hdd.

Hi I still suspect that its something to do with the drivers.
Was it working fine before ?
Also try uninstalling the drivers and restart the computer. See if XP installs some default drivers. Try to play some video files and see if it still freezes the computer. Then try reinstalling the drivers.
