    Hi,

    While watching video clips on Quicktime or Windows Media, etc. partially through playback, the screen just goes flat green. I can still hear the audio playing on at normal speed. I'm on an XP Pro. PIII 1Ghz, 128mb Nvidia GeForce FX 5200 video, 512mb ram, 40g hd/8gb free. I restart and it works again for a while then starts doing the same thing. Any ideas?

    Thanks,

    Mekiel

    Does it do it ANY time you play ANY kind of video, or is it just this video?? Is the video on the hard drive, or cd or are you watching it online??

    You might have a codec issue. That is if it is only the playing area that goes green.

    Do you have to reboot the PC or restart the program?
