Video Display 2

[hughLg]

I was upgraded my Windows XP from Windows ME. I had deleted all the backup file that're need to restored back to previous Windows. In previous Windows (ME), there's a CD provides some resources such as driver, application...

When I installing the Windows ME, I didn't install anythings in this resources CD. And just go directly to upgrade it into Windows XP. Maybe that resources're must in somethings...

When I using Windows XP, and when I play the video file, I can only hear the sound, but no any pictures...

What's the problem? I can't reinstall the Windows again. What I need to add? Where can I found it?

You need to add the correct drivers for everything, probably. Check the manufacturer of your video card, sound card, etc. and get the XP drivers. The Windows Updater will not necessarily have them. Jennifer Sigman

One thing you definitely need is a correct codec. A codec is a kind of program that decodes the compressed file into a series of pictures. If you get DivX, you will be able to play most movie formats.
