Netflix issues

[Xylitol]

Everytime I try to watch a movie online, it stops downloading in the middle of it, so the PLAY button stays grayed out. I have updated to IE7 and have installed the netflix player and everything.

Has this happened to anyone else? And what have you done to fix it?
Thanks

Never seen this problem in XP or Vista

Haven't experienced this problem either. i haven't really used it much lately either, though.

Does is say "buffering"? I experienced something similar when my connection speed dropped below what Netflix calculated for quality, etc...I had to restart the entire thing disc over, it sucked mostly because we were just at the end.

Do you have WMP 11?

That will happen if the partition that your 'temp' folder is on doesn't have atleast a couple gig free for the .wmv file. If that's the case, either give your partition more space, or free up space, or change your temp file to a partition/drive that has adequate space.
