You make it sound in your last, ahem, sentence that you use the Windows
Media Player 10 okay on some video files but that you use some other
video player on the other video files and it is this other video player
that hangs. Is that correct? If so, what *IS* this other video player?
How do you know the videos that cause the hang haven't been corrupted or
contain scripts (and the video player has scripts disabled)? If the
problem isn't because of corrupted video files, and because you said the
video played okay for other files (if you are talking about using the
same video player in both instances), then the problem isn't with the
video player. Have you ran CHKDSK lately? Have you tried a different
MPEG player application? What happens when you obtain a new copy of
whatever video files don't work? Have you check the Event Viewer to see
if there is a record in the Application logfile for when the video
player got hung?
