Hi
I recently added a second monitor, and in doing so needed to upgrade my drivers for my gfx card. When I divx play movies now there is only a black screen and audio. Frame rate is also decreased, noticed when i move the mouse around. Task manager reveals that the program used to play the video uses 99% of the CPU power too.

After fully deleting the drivers, removing the second screen and reinstalling the very latest drivers, the problem has not been resolved. I also installed the latest DivX and Xvid codecs.

I have been using VLC media player or winamp to play the movies and my OS is XP SP2. The movies worked fine before i tried installing the second monitor. My gfx card is an nVidia GeForce 6600 GT.

Any other hardware specs please ask! Thanks in advance,

Doug
