I recently upgraded my ram to 1.5 g and got an NVIDIA Geforce 6200. it works great in games and such, but when i try to watch videos in winamp or windows media player it just sucks. the movie locks up every couple of seconds, and makes my computer really slow so it seems like i have no ram, and i'm forced to just CTRL+ALT+END, and that even takes a bit of time because it's slowed down from the movie. i've never had any problems watching clips, movies on my old videocard.

assuming that you have the latest drivers, my experience with these problems is generally that it is a hardware issue that requires a bios/firmware fix for the card.

Who made the card? Have you contact their tech support....normally they will not post such problems but have a fix for those who contact them
