Does anyone have any idea why certain vids I've downloaded off the web would crash my computer and/or media players... im not talking pirated flicks here (dont worry).. just your standard run of mill internet downloads... as soon as i double click to play the file it will crash my media player.. i cant even click once on the file in the folder or else the folder will crash too.. which in turns slowly refreshes the desktop and screen to make it ok again.. i thought maybe it was a codec thing.. but wasnt sure where to get updates on those.. i have a k-lite pack from a year or so ago.. but didnt know if that was it..any ideas would be greatly appreciated.. thanks in advance!!

is this just one AVI or every AVI? Have you tried a different player Media Player Classic and VLC media player work well, That is if you can open the file with those programs without crasing everyhitng. I really dont know whats causing this but it could be some corrupt files.
Hope this helps

hi there dude, i registered on this site especially to help you.

i jus had EXACTLY the same problem as you, and it was solved by installing the XviD codec, if you dont know what that is, then google "xvid codec" , and its the first result.

you want the koepi build , jus download the file , and run it.

your problems will float away!
