need windows media player and movie maker fix

[mikee]

Videos in these 2 programs do not play correctly, in media player the video picture gets behind the sound and movie maker just gets all glitchy when working with movie clips.

Y dont you just ditch them both and get VLC player?

VLC is the greatest video player so simple and yet works flawlessly and can play almost any format.......

Your download might have been corrupted. VLC shouldnt do that.
Try downloading it again.

Ok im using media player classic and it works for the most part but sometimes if there are other programs in the background the video falls bahind but catches up, and the cpu still stays around 100. the processes using the cpu are mediaplayerclassic and dwm. is there any way to reduce the load on my computer when playing videos?
