How to play hd movies on pc?

Why my computer does not play high quality movies?

  • the screen goes totally black when i play HD movies. my RAM is 256 mb, 2.44 ghz processor, 15'' lcd screen .........(old PC lol) my friend has the same configuration as mine except 1 gb RAM. and CRT monitor. but he can play those movies on his pc. so whats the problem with my PC?? plz help me

  • Answer:

    Your question here is not clear enough. First off what do you mean by you cannot play?? Do you mean that the picture quality is not as good or is it that the file dos not open at all. If it is the latter then you will need to download either Media Player Classic or Download K Lite Mega Codec Pack.The latter is better to be used since it already has MPC inbuilt and in addition to that it provides support to many other video formats too. Howerver if it is the first problem then as another one of our friends suggested here you should look to see if you have the right resolution set or not. Also look to see if you have set the screen refresh rate to the maximum available for your monitor too. This should probably solve your problem. If not please keep us posted.

There are many problems 1) It the problem with ur ram 2)Some games request for a graphic card! 3)You may not have DirectX software The worst situation is You may have a problem in your hardware.... Solution : Update your ram, Reinstall Windows, Install DirectX and finally thing... Pray to God.... Just kidding... Mostly it should be working I think it helps you...

the problem is the low RAM on your PC. Upgrade the RAM to at least 1GB like your friend or better like mine to 2GB (1GB X 2 sticks in alternate color coded slots for dual channel performance)

Assuming that you have windows.. First, you need to figure out the resolution on your monitor. Once you have this, try changing the resolution to the monitor by right clicking the mouse on the desktop, and going to properties, and then display. Enter the resolution of you monitor and save the changes, it should take a second to adjust. good luck!

Hi... RAM might be also a solution for you problem... I think if you reinstall the video drivers,DirectX latest update and a good media player like VLC media player, you can play high resolution videos... For playing high Resolution videos you also need Graphic Memory(128 Mb)... I hope you got what u needed... good LUCK.......

Ram Does not effect it. it may problem with graphic card he may be having higher graphic card , or he may be using different Media Player

you monitor does not support enough pixels to play the movie sorry
