ok, see if anyone else has the same problem or similar.
real player, whenever i try to use it for any sort of video, opens up the file, video starts for about 1-2 seconds, then the whole system just locks up. the image simply stays tehre and nothing works short of hitting the power button.
this never happened before and all my other apps and games are working just fine, including power dvd, ati file player (and all other ati players), windows media player, apple quicktime, divx and whatever else. only real player does this. i dont have any otehr problems with any otehr applications.
since it started to happen, i have tried the following:
reinstall video, audio, mobo drivers. unistall completely and reinstall real player, chkdsk, defrag, diskcleaner, etc. nothing works. (all drivers are of course up to date).
system specs:
stock, not overclocked:
p4 3.06 (hyperthreadng enabled)
supermicro 4saa mobo, granite bay chipset
1 gig of kingston ram , PC 3200
ATI all-in-wonder 9700 Pro
audigy 2
maxtor HD
Samsung CD, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD combo drive
any suggestions ?
also tried the updates and everything i could think of from within real player.
thanks.
