Reply With QuoteTry reinstalling direct-X
Did a virus and spyware scan, came up with a few issues and now, everytime I play a video and close WMP, the system freezes. Any ideas? I tried to download MP12, but it tells me that my system is already up to date.
Maybe I lost a codec?
Came across this site, not sure if it will help?

Try reinstalling direct-X
download VLC and use that instead.
Have you tried uninstalling media player via the Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features in Vista/7 - I know you can uninstall media player in XP, not in front of my 7/Vista PC to know whether you can do it on that....

Last nite I installed K-Lite media player and also an updated driver for the graphics card (which ended up being not the right one). But I increased the screen resolution and now it's doesn't go blank and then freeze when I close the program after I play a vid. But looks like the quality of the video has dropped a bit.
Will see how it goes tonight when I play around with it again.

This is all you need to play ANY video file!
It's what I use with the included MPC ( media player classic ) It's small and very very powerful , And it is not a resource hog like most other media players available.
Oh its CCCP - The oragne link on the left.

Yeah - It's the age old problem with software and computers.
What works for one person - Might not work for someone else.
For me MPC with the CCCP is the best mdeia player I have come across.
I was using GOM Player - Wich is also a fantastic freeware player - But it does not support embedded subs.
I used VLC for a while - But MPC is much nicer.
