I recently installed Windows XP and am extremely happy. However, whenever I
go to streaming video (ABC News, ESPN Motion, etc), I get a very distorted
picture with a green tint. Can anybody tell me how to fix this? Thanks!!

Diasable some of the advanced settings in your video player settings -
hardware acceleration and whatever you might have there. Ex. in WMP10:
Tools/Options/Performance/Advanced... uncheck some of that stuff. You might
need a hardware upgrade as well.

Drum roll please... and now for the correct response use a more recent
version of Divx. The codec you're using is likely divx 5.05. Use divx pro
version 5.1 ot version 5.21.

Don't kid yourself you know that won't do anything. Drum roll please... and
now for the correct response use a more recent version of Divx. The codec
you're using is likely divx 5.05. Use divx pro version 5.1 or version 5.21.
