  Codecs: Frequently asked questions

  Step 3: Check if you have the latest video drivers installed on the computer. You can log on to the computer for the same manufacturer site. Also, check the latest Windows updates. Check if all related drivers are available in the optional updates.

  Install Windows updates

  a. open the screen resolution by clicking the Start button, Control Panel, and then, under appearance and personalization, click on adjust the screen resolution.

• My computer crashes whenever I try to play a video clip from the internet. I have to disconnect the plug to escape. What can I do? Thank you

  My computer crashes whenever I try to play a video clip from the internet. I have to disconnect the plug to escape. What can I do? Thank you

  There is a lot of noise from speakers as well.

  Disable the hardware accelerator or install flash player 10.

• I get the blue screen of death whenever I try to play a video - regardless of the source (you tube or CNN). Instant death! I tried to reinstall Adobe Flash player. Any help would be appreciated, if not his return to IE...

  Blue death screen / system crash when you try to play the video or to copy an image from the internet

  On further study, please do not go on the road to perdition as I trod.

  However, to do this: go to http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/ and right CLICK on the logo that is being charged. THEN: Navigate down until "settings", click it, and you should have the choice: "disable hardware acceleration". NOTE: If you do NOT have this choice, study the icons down quickly: on MY screen, the left-most is an icon that looks like a video monitor: click on it and give you the opportunity to "disable hardware acceleration".

  It works, if you can get it done before you get a BSOD! AND do not take the life of your computer in your hands by updating your video drivers. I do not really recommend doing that!

• Windows Media Player in vista has stopped playing my video files (.) MOD extensions)

  My Windows media player recently stopped playing my video files that have a. Extension of MOD, although the audio is not yet once the video is crushed. When the video freezes a computer bubble lets me know that the driver igfx has stopped working and then recovered.

  I spent many hours trying to solve this problem. My graphics card is an Intell chipset and it is up to date with his driver (I checked), the motherboard is an ASUS and this is far too - I checked. I ran an auto fix and that disabled four codecs, but the problem persists. I have run the sfc / scan now processes at the prompt as an administrator and it came clear.

  The problem is driving me crazy! can anyone help? When I play the video on another computer that works under XP, I have no problem.

  Thank you

  John.

• Whenever I try to play a game I get a pop-up window saying I need to update my Flash Player from Adobe.  I did 3 times

  I tried to play Candy Crush & Solitaire all day and every time I try I get a pop-up window saying I need to download a new version.  I have downloaded 3 times today & reset my email and password and still can't get anything to load.  What is going on???

  This password is presented by your operating system and is designed to prevent you from accidentally installing the software.

  If it comes to your personal computer and you don't need a password to connect to the computer when it first starts, you can probably leave the password blank and click OK to go to this prompt.  If it comes to your personal computer and your normal password does not work, make sure that CAPS LOCK SHIFT is off, and then type the password carefully.

  If this is your work machine and he asks an administrator password, well, you will need to have a conversation with your computer friendly.

• Windows media player will not open and play the videos uploaded on my gmail account but if I send email from my yahoo account.

  But if I send the email to my yahoo account, it will open and play very well.  I ran microsofts 'fix it' program many times without success. What could be wrong?

  Hello Tango6,

  Maybe your security software prevents this? What security software currently installed and have you tried to disable it temporarily?
  Given that this occurs only with your Gmail account, I'd be willing to bet that they have in place security measures to prevent reading straight out of email attachments.
  I would check here just to make sure that:

• just today, when I try to play AVI files from my digital camera... no sound plays on my pc with media player v11... I suspect it's a codec problem, but how do I know for sure?

  just today, when I try to play AVI files from my digital camera... no sound plays on my pc with media player v11... I suspect it's a codec problem, but how do I know for sure?

  Hello Jorstar1,

  Thank you for your message.  Windows Media Player 11 supports .avi, but compression can dictate whether he will play or not.  This is very probably a Codec issue, you can perform a websearch for a Codec that will play any avi compression.
  Please let us know if it did or did not help to resolve this problem.
  See you soon
