    have you installed any codecs lately? I've seen some bad codecs mess up video and sound on a PC. if you have you might want to uninstall them. also keep in mind applications such as NERO and ROXIO burning also install codecs. at lot of times, just reinstalling the last few programs you've installed fixes certain issues.

    It's the problem with the new aim.

    This is what screwed up my other computer.

    You have to do a system restore to the point before you installed aim...and DON'T REINSTALL AIM

    I hate to seem grumpy but this is a perfect example of how not to ask a question on a forum. If you cant provide information in a clear format nobody is going to be able (or want) to help you. Here is a link that explains how to form a complete thought, and how to ask a smart question so others can help you.
