I have a strange problem. After installing a Nvidia Geforce 6200 card, I can play games fine, but I can't watch videos anymore. Every time a video starts my computer gets horribly stuck (extremely slow...until I shut down the player from the task manager). The same happens when I encounter an embedded video on a webpage.
Here are some things I've tried:
-I have installed the latest drivers for the video card
-I have not installed any codec packs, only the official divx codec
-I already tried using different players, I encounter the same problem with every one
-I have tried every type of file: wmv, avi, divx, xvid, rm...none of them work
When I disable the geforce 6200, I am able to play the video files...though they are slightly choppy.
How can I fix the problem so that I can watch video without having to disable my video card?
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I haven't been able to find help for this issue anywhere. Thank you.
