GeForce 6200 Graphics card

[Guest]

I have replaced a faulty GeForce 5200 GPU with a GeForce 6200 GPU. Previous
faults have been rectified but i am now unable to play any DVD's or video
files on WMPlayer or real Player. As soon as the video file tries to load in
WMP or real player the PC locks up and I can only regain control by rebooting
the PC. I am runningXP home.

If any one can help I would be grateful as I have tried
uninstalling/reinstalling, changing settings etc etc. If i uninstall the
graphics card the video files will play !

cheers

Does the new video card require connection to your power supply? It
probably does. Did you remember to connect it? Is your power supply
beefy enough to handle the more demanding video card?

You may need your Nvidia install disk to get the decoder..
