problem playing avi files
Geforce FX5900XT on an asus K8VSEDX board with a 2.2 g AMD Athlon 64
cpu and 1024 mb ddr memory. The problem: I can select and play an avi file in vlc, Nero showtime or Creative Media Player. It plays fine. When it ends I select the second part, or another, different avi file and try to play it. Frame speed is reduced dramatically, leaving a jerky picture with the sound out of sync. The only way I can play a second avi is to reboot. Has anyone seen this, or can anyone point me at a cure? It's really, really irritating.... ps I have tried with the very latest Nvidia files. No difference. TIA...Pete |

Now try uninstalling it, and when that doesn't work, you'll need a fresh reformat/reinstall of your operating system to get rid of these crap codecs. |

That's about the worst advice I've ever heard. A crap/hacked/cracked codec pack is that last thing you need. Your AVI problem is likely due to too many codecs installed on your system, not too few. The Lite codec pack is pretty well known and should cause no problems. I use the Combined Community Codec Pack 2006 and previous versions for the last year of so. The thing to remember when installing new codecs is to remove the old ones first. It may not be necessary in all cases, but is often recommended.

At least in many cases you can forget about removing old codecs before installing these packs, because it's not possible to do so. If I had a dollar for every system that's been hosed by these codec packs I'd be a multimillionaire. |

There are thousands of people who use K-Lite with great success. I think your view is more on the line of "Well, there's a problem. It MUST be K-Lite causing it." |
