I have a computer with Windows XP that I bought in 2001. It has intel D845WN Motherboard, and 1.12 gb of RAM, and I think the video card is radeon 7000. I want to watch the one of the videos on this page: http://www.24-7agtv.com/Joomla/index.php?o...=1&Itemid=1 The image is very distorted (short and fat). What is my problem?

It works OK for me. Are you allowing the Windows Media Player addon?

I'm using IE8. When I went on the site, an alert came up for a Windows Media Player Addon. I allowed it and it worked fine. Maybe it doesn't work properly without the addon.

I checked it myself. It seems to be OK. It's an agricultural video site probably used by farmers. Farming tips and that sort of thing.
