BSOD when watching mvovie

This is a discussion about BSOD when watching mvovie in the Windows Software category; I get BSOD when watching movie with windows media player in winXP, in all the builds I can remember I have tried. Even now with the 2486, I have this hardware setup. It works well playing MP3, midi or wav, just not any movies.

OP
yes those terminologies or what they are called are confusing if you dont know what they mean.
 
bsod is short for blue screen of death, which there are no escape from. your computer is hardlocked and you have to press the reset button.
