5 posts · originally from https://geek.digit.in/community/threads/help-my-pc-wont-play-video.56536/

my pc is suddenly unable to video files of any format, except for .flv .

any & all players(wmp, winamp,jetaudio, irfaanview,vcdcutter, & even Nero!) just hang up whenever i try to play a video.
i tried everything i could think up:reinstalled the players, graphics drivers, directx...everything; but no avail. can ne1 tell me whats wrong? i dont wish to change to some other player like vlc,gom..whatever.

p.s:ask 4 my sys info if u need it.

have you installed Klite codec pack? And play videos with Media Player Classic or VLC media player... and not winamp.

its not 'bout any single player!

I think the power supply has gone kaput and is not able to supply enough power to the video card to decode videos.Better test with another power supply.Hope this helps u cause this was what i encountered with my nvidia 6600.

Install Vista Codec Pack(even for XP) that came with Digit in April...

You may also go for K-Lite or ACE Mega Codec pack...

This should solve your Problem...
