I have windows media palyer 9. Whenever I try to play a video I only hear the sound but the picture freezes. Then the computer crashes and i have to restart. This happens too when i play a dvd. I have removed the player and reinstalled it but to no avail. I have k-lite codec pack and even tried the nimo codec pack, but the problem remains.

Interesting, does it give you an error message? or does it just freeze?

Do you have the latest video card drivers? Is there anything in your running software you can shut off and try again? Some programs (for whatever reason) interfere with multimedia files.

Old computers are getting to be a lost art. Here at Uncreative Labs, we still enjoy using the old computers. Sometimes we want to see how far a particular system can go, other times we use a stock system to remind ourselves of what we once had.
