Hi all this is my first post so please be nice :)

If i try to play any type of media file then windows media lockup and if i close it with task manager then windows locks up :mad:
i have reinstalled windows twice and still no joy my windows xp is the september release with media player 11.
O'yer and i can convert video file to dvd and they play back fine on my dvd player but not on the pc and i can rip and wright cds using wmp.

I have a 2.2gh p4 cpu and 1gb ram 64mb ati 7000 500w psu and windows xp home 32bit.

Thanx for any help you can give me.
 
hi thanx for the reply i downloaded memtest86 and ran it, it took a long time but after the test had finished there was no errors.

i have found that nero 8 showtime can play audio files fine but i cant play video files still its not a codec prob cos like i said i can convert video files fine i just cant watch them which makes no sence to me.
i herd it could be a grafix card prob but i dont wont to by a new one unless i have to cos after buying the new windows xp home i dont really wont to blow any more money unless i really must.
