    Unhappy Audio/Video Problems

    Ok, first off, I'll give my motherboard and graphics card specs.

    Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-SINXP1394

    Graphics Card - NVIDIA GeForce 7300 GT

    Ok, now that that's out of the way. I have a few problems. First of all, when I attempt to play a movie (or other video file) it freezes the program that is trying to play it. If I open one in Realplayer, it freezes, same thing with WMP or even IE or Firefox if it's online. This problem started soon after I got my new graphics card. I can play games though, which is odd, because I can play games with great graphics perfectly, it's JUST videos. I have no clue what the problem could be.

    Secondly, and this only started this weekend, when I attempt to open any sort of audio file, the media player says that my audio driver is being used by another program. No sound plays at all from my computer, not even from games or anything. I attempted to update my audio driver, but that didn't help anything either, I don't have a clue what the problem is.

    I can't watch movies OR listen to music. It's kinda killing me, so any help I could get would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    try re-installing both your audio and video drivers, also re-install WMP... please post back the results

    I kinda hate you right now...

    I've done that exact same thing at lease 3 times...updates all of the mobo drivers and the graphix driver...and it didn't work any of those times...

    But this time I do it, it works...

    Thanks
