    Windows Media Player 11, Video stutters and skips

    Am using a desktop running with Windows XP and Media Player 11. Until a week ago everything was working fine but don’t know what went wrong suddenly from last week whenever I play any video in WMP, it stutters and skips. The problem only occurs with file formats such as AVI, MPEG's and WMV files.

    First I thought could be the codec issue hence I reinstalled them but the problem remained there. I don’t know what else I need to do. Can anyone here suggest me any working solution please?

    First of all you must upgrade your Video Card drivers, sound card drivers and directX. Other than this can you tell me few things such as:

    1. Are you trying to play the videos from local HDD or from any external storage or network?
    2. Did you defragmented your HDD? If yes, when was the last time?
    3. What is your system configuration?

    My system config is as follows:
    • Motherboard: Asus A7V333
    • Processor: AMD Athlon (TM) XP 2200+ 1.35 GHz. 1 GB of Ram
    • Windows XP Professional: Version 2002, Service Pack 2
    • Windows Media Player 11: version 11.05.5721.5145
    • Video Card NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200: 256mb Version 4.34.20.69.51


    And I dint defragmented my drives yet. Am trying to play the videos directly from my D drive (local HDD)
