New graphics card, odd problem

[pesty]

I fitted a new graphics card yesterday. All seemed ok I loaded a game up and it played fine.

This morning I try to open up an MPG in windows media player and the PC freezes. Same with an AVI file and even quicktime. Power DVD will not work either.

Basically the PC just freeses and goes mental if I try and play any video with any type of player. everything else is fine

any ideas? Is it possible that something is corrupted on my PC or can the card be duff but only for video playback?

Very odd.

PS i can watch clips on youtube etc etc and I have downloaded windows media player 11 again and installed it still the same. I just cant watch files stored on my PC

?? I dont have too many PC problems do I ?


problem solved anyway. Downloaded latest driver for card off the net. that did not cure it.

down loaded latest chip set drivers and custom windows updated .net3 something or other and now like magic the clips work.

alls well that ends well, sorry for asking too many questions.
