hey guys i just got a new laptop, much better then my old one. But when I went to play a movie with windows media player, the sound worked but there was no video. The video was like soundwaves. Is this a problem with the laptop? Does anyone know how to fix it?

cheers

So it projected soundwaves? :O

Anyway, just update your codec. Or use VLC which works with most videos.
