Troublesome .wmv video clip

[Guest]

I have a .wmv video clip that on some computers causes the screen to go
blank. I have to reboot and then the computer is OK. On other computers the
clip plays fine.

This file is 12,545KB and was made from a .mpg file shot from my digital
camera. I converted it to .wmv using Windows Media Encoder.

What is the cause of this, and how can I get around it?

Thanks,
Wayne
