Reply With Quotei would look at the 64x drivers for the graphics card
Win 7 64bit Hi all, Just wondering if someone might have had this problem before. I've installed windows 7 64bit pro. When you try to play avi files in windows media player the the computer will crash and go to a black screen then you have to hard reset it. I have tried installing K-lite 64bit codec pack but it made no difference.
This same computer was running the 32bit version previously without any problems.

Looks like I might have to lashout and buy a new graphics card.

Problem fixed. I uninstalled k-lite. Then went to a website called "Shark007.net" and downloaded 2 files and installed.
Win7codecs_v256
x64 Components_v260
When finished it gave a settings application for 64bit. I told it to run windows mediaplayer 64bit version.
So if anyone else has this problem this should fix it for you ok.
