    hi guys, i have a amd athlon 64 3500+, geforce 6200 and 1750ram. all bought new, for some reason when i start a video like anime episode with media player clasic or other media players, my computer becomes slow as hell, and my screen starts going black and returning normal almost the whole time.
    ohh! its start acting like this also when i get in a map with video files and just singel click on 1 :(.
    yes i did instal video drivers and motherboard drivers.
    i hope some1 has the answer.
    thnx.

    CODECS!!!

    Have you remembered the codecs for what ever format your videofiles that you want to see are incoded in?

    Like DivX, Xvid and OGM etc. etc.

    no its not the codecs i got them all, and yes its happening with all videos. plus there is no way a PC with my specs would become this slow because of videos.

    lol i already have klite mega coded pack installed its the first thing i do after reinstalling my pc XD.

    edit!!: omg!! its the same with the opening video of warcraft roflmao . i cant run warcraft anymore because the pc gets slow as usual when when the intro movie starts, i dont see the movie or anything only black screen and my pc is slow as hell , pressing Esc to skip the video wont work either. :(

    How about trying out a different video driver, like if you are using the latest, try the second latest.

    It sounds awfull wierd with that problem of yours really.

    You are also sure that all your small lovely fans inside your pc are turning as they should right?

    because if a cpu gets to warm it slows everything that loads it heavyli, if a gfx fan stops working properly it can give you right from slowdowns to black screen as well.

    That is all i can think of, else i have no idea what would trigger this strange event of your.
