I cant get any images on any of my video plays(window, divx, real or creative) videos do play on quicktime and in media center. All i get is the sound. if i want to watch a video i have to open up media center, which is fine except for videos that are only temp or are on a website and i cant download them. i first noticed this problem when i tried to watch a video on yahoo launch and all i had was sound. This is really annoying please help Thank you Justin

What are the extensions of the video files in question?

it doesnt seem to matter which video i try to play if it is not quicktime or i dont play it through media center there is no image. Having this problem means i cant watch a video unless i download it.

Real videos will only play in Real Player. For compressed AVI files you
MUST have the correct codec installed (usually DivX od XVid), WMV files with
v9 codecs require Windows Media Player v9...

You're not giving me enough info to work with here!
