Using XP with SP2, Athlon XP2400+, 1Gig RAM, GEForce 6600 128Mb graphics
card, On board C Media sound.
Until recently everything was fine. But now I cannot play any type of video
file. Tried MPEG's and AVI's etc. Also tried Windows Media Player,
Quicktime and Real Player. In every case the player says its "loading or
connecting", the processor usage hits 100% then any mouse movements or
keystrokes just slow down and eventually the PC grinds to a halt and has to
be restarted.
I've checked out MS's KB, tried downloading new codecs, reinstalled the
players. But still no joy. The files them selves are ok as they play on
another XP machine.
Really at a loss with this one. Any help appreciated .
