The Notebook Review forums were hosted by TechTarget, who shut down them down on January 31, 2022. This static read-only archive was pulled by NBR forum users between January 20 and January 31, 2022, in an effort to make sure that the valuable technical information that had been posted on the forums is preserved. For current discussions, many NBR forum users moved over to NotebookTalk.net after the shutdown.

    It depends on what video format you're using. If it's a flash type video, you could upgrade the flash codecs. If its a regular QT or WMP video, go into your graphics settings (right click on desktop, then choose properties, then settings, then advanced, then troubleshoot menu) and back off the graphics hardware acceleration. I'd opt for the latter as being most likely.
