BSOD when opening Pics and Vids
I apologize if this has been covered. I did a search and came up empty. I am Very new to Windows 7. I came from XP Home and am now running W7 RC. Everything has gone smoothly except for one big issue so far. EVERY single time I try to open a pic or vid, I get the dreaded Blue Screen Of Death. It runs though its paces and reboots every time. It doesn't seem to matter what format either. I've installed codecs that worked fine for XP and have also worked in Vista. But all the basic file types result in the BSOD; Jpeg, Gif, Bmp, Wmv, Mpeg, etc. MP3's do work fine though w/ the included Media Player.
Has anyone come across this?? Is there a known fix? This is a major downside for me and if it continues it looks like I might have to resort back to XP Home.
