Uninstall any third party codecs and see if that helps.

does ATI Decoder count?

Absolutely. See if it makes a difference.

Same thing is happening to me!

I'm running a 6800 PNY card w/ current drivers (not beta) and no 3rd party codecs that I know of other than the DIVX codec but I got that from divx.com or whatever the official site is for it.

What happens for me is that the video will just completely freeze my computer and every once in a while i can move the mouse..but then if i push ALT+F4 or like CTRL+ALT+DEL it will screw the resolution of my display up so its like 100x200 or something worse and all I can do is restart the comp...

Did this with WMP v9 and v10

If you're doing a fresh install, you should do the latest service pack as well.

Any browser that I try to run a movie clip from online will crash the browser (IE, Mozilla, etc). It doesn't crash the machine, just the browser.
