I have a problem with the videos of the Webpages with the extension "WMV". I can listen to the sound but the only thing I see is blocks of different colors.

This problem started when i downloaded windows media player 10 from the page of Windows update. Looks like that the program or one of its files is corrupted.

Im a noob with those things so i need some help. Thanks in advance.

Try this:

Double click the title bar (very top of the browser) then maximise it again - the video should show up.

Otherwise click the icon next to the between close and minimise, then maximise the browser.

If not, let us know what browser you are using - if using Firefox you can have the WMV open up in an external player, such as Windows Media Player using MediaPlayerConnectivity plugin.

Im using one called Avant Browser, it uses the iexplore.exe (Internet Explorer) program to see the pages but its faster and has more tools, like a pop-up blocker.

I hope this can be fixed.

You tried doing what I just said whilst a streaming vid is running?

Yes but its the same, i think that got something to do with something called video "Dsp", in the options window in the main program there should be something, but its blank.
