Hi there,

WMP 11 (vista) is terrible to play videos. normal .wmv files play OK at normal size but when in full screen they are horribly choppy. in addition my HD wmv are choppy even at normal size and the audio and video are completely off sync.

all these videos played perfect on my previous laptop which had 1.4 GHz and 512 MB RAM. my new lappy is an AMD dual core 64 bit 1.6 GHZ processor with 2 gigs RAM and nVidia Go 6150 graphics. i know its not hardware cause i can play doom 3 no problem.

i've tried turning aero off and on and installing third party codecs which shouldn't be neccessary

thanks in advance
