    I'm having extremely strange problem playing any video on my pc.
    When I try to play any video type on winamp, picture is black, only most bright areas are visible as dark red or something like that.
    But here comes the best part:
    When I open the video file first with wmp 10, and after that with winamp (so both are running, wmp on backround) the picture is normal watching with winamp. Now that's what I call strange.

    Sound is normal.

    I hope someone understood the problem, and it would be best, if someone even know how to fix this

    btw: I have k-lite codec pack, and i've tried everything with codecs

    Maoonma , are you sure you don't have a virse or spyware problem

    try running "SmithfraudFix" v2.113 and posting a log file also run "Spysweeper"

    Is there any other good spyware scanners? Spysweeper needs subscription if you want to delete spyware. I found few risky files but i can't delete them with spysweeper..

    I ran SmithfraudFix, but when I tried to use clean (safe mode), the program crashed.

    First you hav to uninstall 6.4.go to program files,divx folder the uninstall is there.then you can install 6.1.belive you me. I had 6.4also it has it's good points,but that was a big trade off.It may also show up in control panel uninstall programs.Hang in there

    I went to C:\Program Files\DivX folder and found the uninstall stuff, but it says it's 6.1.1. I have no idea what to do :/ ..
    Before I formated whole hard drive I had no video problems with k-lite codec pack, and now all this. Maybe service pack 2 would do it? I had it few minutes and whole pc was slow and windows blinds screwed so I uninstalled it..
