| | Media Player and Media Center Hang when playing videos I have recently installed Win 7 Ultimate When playing video files in Media Player or Media Center they will hang up periodically a few secs / mins then continue again. No errors show up in the event logs, except for alot of services entering start and stop state. I have the latest Win 7 NVDIA graphics driver installed. Other apps also hang periodicaly for a few seconds and then return to working order again, but now as much as the videos. Has anyone else experienced this? What can I do to resolve this as I am not keen on having to go back to Vista. Thanks |

| | Perhaps the video driver needs to be rolled back. Check out this thread: http://www.sevenforums.com/network-i...tml#post232799 It's about various applications freezing. Using an older nVidia driver seems to help. |
