    Yesterday, my device manager had a yellow triangle with video controller next to it. Everything works well except now, I can't get video in windows Media Player? Is this a software driver problem or hardware issue? The recovery disk wants to reformat my drive but I don't want to lose the info on it. I tried finding a driver but have had no luck. I have a Satellite M45-S369 with the Intel intergrated graphics adapter.


    Thanks,
    Chopperdoc

    What type of video file are you trying to play in WMP.

    I tried several file types, .wmv, asf,.mpeg and a music DVD. None worked. Audio was fine. It worked OK until about 3 or 4 days ago. I may have inadvertently deleted something but don't know what. I said It was a M45-S369 but its a S359. The intergrated card is an Intel 900 series.

    Thanks,
    Chopperdoc

    Also, using a standalone DVD program, it plays DVD's fine. I tried to update WMP, but it failed to update both version 10 and 11.
