No Full Screen Mode In Streaming Video

As my title says, I am trying to stream online videos in Windows Media Player on my Windows XP SP2 desktop. Though the video starts and play fine but due to some unknown reason, am not able to stream it in full screen. I tried doing this with WMP 10, WMP 11 and KM Player, but all with the same problem, no fullscreen streaming.

Many times while attempting to run it in fullscreen, WNP as well as Internet Explorer Crashes. I tried searching google for help but dint found any working solution so far. Is there anyone here who had experience with this problem? Please help me. Many thanks.

This could be because of your video drivers. Do you have any graphic card installed on your system? if yes, just visit its manufacturer website and download the most recent drivers. If you don’t have graphic card, still go to Device Manager and update all your system drivers. Once done, restart the system and see if you are able to stream the videos fullscreen.

Thanks for the help friend. I updated my Graphic card driver but that doesn’t seems to be working. I still get the same problem. I also tried re-installing both Media Player and Internet explorer, yet the problem exists.

Any other help please?

I am also having problems with IE7 crashing when trying to go to full screen on streaming video. I am on vista and have IE7 and WMP11 if that make a difference.

Heres my error report and the fault bucket number zachd.

i was having the same prob. and i too downloaded the drivers etc..... but nothing worked. Then i changed the flash player or streaming videos settings and disabled hardware acceleration.

to do this you have to right click on the video and disable it and now the videos play in fullscreen. hope it helps..
