System freezing for a moment before playing videos - MSI GT 70

Every time i double click a movie, windows freezes for like 1.5 second before playing the movie. it is not just a normal OS thing. it ALWAYS happen when i play videos. I received my laptop 4 days ago and this is the only problem i found so far. it may not be a big deal but im kinda worried because of some dude on amazon (who, btw, bought his GT70 from the same patch i bought mine from) wrote an angry review complaining about crashes when playing videos.

online videos are fine, so is audio files. the freeze only happens when i play the usual video files i download.
try play them with different player

  • Hi .. While working in PS it is freezing for a moment and wild purples and greens make large pixel patterns behind the program on the desk top. Any ideas ? Thanks.

    Hi .. A never before seen problem for me .. While working in PS with large files , the program freezes for a moment and bright pixels of flourescent colors of purple  and green fill parts of the background screen behind Photoshop. Its getting worse ? The programs are running extremely slow also. Thanks for any ideas.

    You can't and don't have a PowerMac (G5).
    Repairing Permissions, likely just waste of time.
    REPAIR the HARD DRIVE instead.
    Blowing dust around inside is a really bad idea. Or in the house.

  • At every startup, Mac mini desktop freezes for 10 mins before I can start any program, what should I do?

    At every startup, Mac mini desktop freezes for 10 mins before I can start any program, what should I do? The mouse cursor can move around, but the icons are not responding at all. Can't click on anything during the "freezing" period, and this "freezing" happened with every startup. Waking up from sleep mode is OK. Also the systems crashed frequently with any flash-player required pages in web browser. What's wrong??

    Hey,
    Repair Disk permisions...
    Applications > Utilities > Disk utility > Select your Mac OS Hard Drive on the left > Click Repair Permissions.

  • The browser freezes for a second while playing Zuma Blitz and Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook. It also freezes for a second while typing. What's going on?

    During gameplay on Facebook it falls under Adobe Flash. If I "END" the plugin-container.exe the game crashes and have to refersh the page, in which case the plugin starts all over again. There seems to be no way to play without this process running. My typing is also freezing for a second before it catches up to my fingers. This has been happening for about two weeks. I never had this problem playing these games before.
    My OS is Windows Vista and I'm running Firefox version 3.6.13

    Update: Firefoxe's best browser was version ~2.2.21!
    Ever since then, the user experience has been less and less. Slower browser, feats most users don't use (like skins)... really.. I'm a bit disappointed at the (negative) progress of late.

  • System freezes for few seconds/ millisecon​ds

    Hi,
    since a few days i've got a problem rising up at my Satellite P750.
    Sometimes (its not specific due to any operation)
    my system freezes for a millisecond or maybe bit longer.
    I don't know what to do. Neither Toshiba Analyse Tools say anything nor AntiVirus :/
    Seems to be a specific problem!?
    Maybe someone knows how to fix it ?
    Regards and thx,
    Simon

    Try using System Restore to restore a previous restore point from before this became an issue.
    If that doesn't fix it, you could try a recovery as a final option. Recovering your laptop to its original, out-of-the-box state is a great way to eliminate software as a possible cause of the problem. Note that doing a system recovery will return the laptop to its default conditions, completely wiping your data. Information on how to perform a system recovery can be found in your user's guide. You can usually hold '0' (zero) while booting to begin the procedure.
    If the problem persists after performing a recovery, it may require servicing.

  • Video on youtube freezes for a moment

  • Why does quiktime freeze when i try to play video?

    I just reformatted my computer and reinstalled windows xp pro...before i had no problem with itunes or quicktime...but now whenever i try to play video through itunes it will freeze and i have to ctrlaltdelete and then cancel...then itunes will close down...when i try to open a video through quicktime the program freezes so i do the ctrlaltdelete then cancel and this time quicktime will play audio but no video...PLEASE HELP!!! i am going crazy, all drivers are installed and updated, i tried to repair and reinstall itunes and quicktime with no success

    I would take a look at the video card driver. The lastest driver for a video card doesn't always mean it is going to be the best one for it or even work without causing problems.
    Example, recently when going to microsoft's OS updates, there were a few updates needed, most security related, one was for the secondary monitor's video card. Well after they were installed, the computer would keep re-starting on its own.
    Well the last change made was updating the video card driver. So I rolled it back in Device Manager, and that solved the problem. This is why I think it is foolish to have a windows computer setup to automatically update.
    The problem your having is difficult to diagnose, more than likely a driver issue. It is not QT because that is only a program.
    Hardware not configured properly will definately cause a freeze when playing mulimedia. Mostly if the jumpers are not setup correctly with master/slave for drives and in the BIOS.
    Why was the OS XP pro reinstalled?

  • ITunes Error For Windows - Won't Play Videos

    iTunes will not play videos in the iTunes store. It says "iTunes has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    Any help is appreciated.

    This looks like a Quicktime problem and the usual fix for that, after uninstalling all things Apple/iTunes (use this : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 ) is to re-install starting with a separate copy of Quicktime and then installing iTunes.

  • System freezes for several seconds every minute or so?

    Recently, within the past week, my OS has began freezing for several seconds every 40 seconds or so. I had not downloaded any applications around the time this began. The last app I downloaded was iMovie 6 (for the editing features), I downloaded this several days after this problem began. The last app I downloaded BEFORE the problem began was UnRarX, which I downloaded back in April. I have no idea how to check my specs, and computer info, please tell me how to get this and I will tell you.

    Call AppleCare. Whenever you buy a new Mac, discs are always supplied with them. Usually they come in a white envelope that is square with the user manual in the box. If you bought it from a non-Apple source, you should call them and ask them to send you the disc. It isn't their's to keep, and they can call AppleCare to order them. And no, it isn't in the Utilities folder. It is a physical optical disc that looks like a music CD, but says MacBook Pro on it.

  • Whenever a new window (or even Firefox program windows like Add-ons, Bookmarks, Settings, etc) is opened, Firefox freezes for 30+ seconds before opening it.

    I have reset Firefox, then reinstalled, removed all of the extensions and plugins, uninstalled and reinstalled Flashplayer, updated Java, etc. I have also created new profiles, which have the same problem.
    The problem does not appear in Safe Mode, which is odd because I have disabled all of the built-in extensions and have run the program in regular mode, and the problem still occurs. Right now I am using no extensions, no plugins, and no themes, and Firefox still freezes for a short period of time whenever I try to open a new window.
    This problem does not happen in IE or Chrome. I have not installed any programs recently; the problem started happening randomly.

    Hi,
    [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe%20Mode Safe Mode] also disables the themes ('''Appearance''') in '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Add-ons'''. and hardware acceleration - the manual setting is '''Tools''' > '''Options''' > [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Options%20window%20-%20Advanced%20panel?as=u Advanced] > '''General''' > '''Use hardware acceleration when available'''. All these settings/options/add-ons can also be individually or collectively disabled/enabled/changed in Firefox normal mode to check if a theme, or hardware acceleration is causing issues. Disabling/enabling hardware acceleration, and some types of add-ons in normal mode may require a Firefox restart - a quick way to restart Firefox is to press [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Tools/GCLI '''Shift''' + '''F2'''], type '''restart''' and '''Enter'''.

  • When I try to read my rss-feed through yandex service, the browser and the whole system freeze for a significant amount of time. This started with Firefor 5 and is very unpleasant. Thank you in advance.

    When I try to download (and especially renew) a page with my rss-feed that I read with Yandex service, the browser freezes, and then the whole system freezes. It typically takes about 5-7 minutes to load a very minimalistic page, and I can't use my browser or my system during that time.
    This started with the release of Firefox 5. I use it on Ubuntu. I haven't experienced similar problems with any other websites.
    I have already contacted the Yandex team about the matter.
    I guess it's just a little weird that one of the Yandex services won't work in Firefox, as Firefox comes with a built-in yandex-bar in many cases. And it sure is frustrating.
    Thank you very much and I am looking forward to your reply.

  • Podcasts and tv shows videos stop and start when playing.  The Audio flows fine, but video freezes for a moment and continues.  Do you know what I can do to fix?

    When watching a podcast or tv program on itunes the video freezes and starts.  The audio still flows just fine.  Do you know what the solution might be?

    set the wake-on lan on the main computer
    The laptop's too far away from the router to be connected by ethernet. It's all wifi.
    No separate server app on the laptop, it's all samba
    The files are on a windows laptop and a hard drive hooked up to the windows laptop. The windows share server is pants, so I'd need some sort of third party server running. Maybe you weren't suggesting to use Samba to connect to the windows share though?
    I'm glad that you've all understood my ramblings and taken and interest, thanks The way I see it, I can't be the only netbook user these days looking for this kind of convenience, and I certainly won't be once chrome and moblin hit the market.

  • Itunes for windows will not play videos

  • Browser freezes for a second while playing Zuma Blitz and Bejeweled Blitz on Facebook

    Zuma Blitz hangs while playing on Facebook

    The only way to turn off the ipod is to use the sleep/wake button and then turning the red slider. The only setting to switch it off automatically would be the Timer function:
    Timer
    Set the timer: Tap Timer, then flick to set the number of hours and minutes. Tap Start to start the timer.
    Choose the sound: Tap When Timer Ends.
    Set a sleep timer: Set the timer, then tap When Timer Ends and choose Sleep iPod.
    When you set a sleep timer, iPod touch stops playing music or video when the timer ends.
    If you start the timer and go to another iPod touch application, the timer continues
    running in the background. (user guide page 89)
    And if the batteries are almost empty the ipod will turn off by itself and you will have difficulties to start it up again until you charged it a couple of minutes.
