I hope this is the right forum for my problem:
When I try to access a media file (e.g. .mpg or avi) from media player - or just by selecting the file in windows explorer my PC immediately crashes - no warnings or shutdown - just lights out and reset. It used to be just windows explorer crashing until I had an windows error pointing to a Data Execution Prevention eroor (a feature in SP2. After excluding Widows Explorer, it suddenly would load thumbnails for my video clips. But the pleasure was short. Selecting one would cause an immediate crash. Microsoft told me to uninstall SP2, update my processor driver and reinstall SP2. After updating all my drivers and reinstall SP2 (and all the software that got messed up in the process, I am no further. I now run media player 10. If I drop a media file in it, it shows up nicely in my play list. When I hit play - Adios! - restart. Same if I access a mediafile from another application
I have no viruses and no spyware (according to Norton and adware)
This is driving me nuts! Any suggestions?
Cumputer specs should show in epilog
