BleepingComputer.com: whan playing videos,only blank screen and audio

Hi,im having problems watching any kind of video.When playing video file all i get is a blank screen and i can hear the sound.The problem is the same with these players:WMP 10,BSplayer and PowerCinema.So far,only player i can use is DivX player when playing avi files.I uninstalled all of my codecs and installed K-Lite Codec Pack,reinstalled WMP and installed new video card driver but the problem is still there.Suggestions?

Try VLC.

I would really like to find a solution for this problem,not download a new player.

It's the best solution. A lot of users have given up on WMP and have gone to VLC because it will play anything. You're going to spend who knows how much time trying to figure this out and chances are pretty good nothing will work. So make life easy on yourself unless you like hitting your head against a brick wall. This is a suggestion that will actually work.

Downloaded VLC player,it wont work either. I think the best solution is new xp installation.

Then the problem is not WMP. There's likely something else going on. Normally, VLC will play anything.
