Help me fix my Video!!!

OK so I'm cruisin' along watching um....car video's, and now all I get is sound. No more picture. I use windows media player, and have checked all the obvious stuff (obvious to a computer idiot like me). Just sound...no video...any ideas?

If you are having problems watching...ummm...car videos, you may need a specific "codec." Surf on over to http://www.divx.com and see if that fixes the problem and makes those, ahem, car videos, watchable.

Try winamp player and see if it works.
I prefer Winamp anyway, I just set it with all the same keyboard shortcuts as WMP.

Better sound, better picture, flows better. IMO

Nothing worse than a pixelated... err... car rear bumper, when it's in full screen.

I have, but it wasn't my dad. When my dad walks into my room, he says something along the lines of, "that will make you go blind" or something like that. I always have to let him know where I am in the room. Dad, I'm over here."
