Hi,

• Which application are you using to watch the videos?

• Are you trying to watch the videos saved on the computer or from a CD/DVD?

• Does it happen with all the videos?

• Is there any error message?

• How long are you facing the issue?

However, refer to “Play an audio or video file: frequently asked questions”  http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Play-an-audio-or-video-file-frequently-asked-questions

    I have Mozilla Firefox.  I can't watch any video, on my e-mail or FaceBook.  February 14th I could open any video FB or e-mail and watch it, but not now. It was Sunday Feb. 15 this all started.  Never tried a CD/DVD.  I just like the little clips that on FB and my e-mail.   It happens every time on all videos.  No there isn't any error.  Yesterday the space where the video should be showing was black, today it just has the frame and there is only white where the video would be.
