Check you are using the cam studio codec for the compressor , it dosent like anything else .

Search the forum for video acceleration , or check you hardware video setting's , you should beable to disable directdraw acceleration , and try it again ...

You may have the option to adjust the video acceleration via a slider , bring it back to the left , then try it again .

It's a problem designed into directx9 .

Another trick that might work ... download koolplayer , open a small video and leave it there ... now try wmp10 again ... it seem's to apply direct acceleration to the first player , and not the second .

Although , just thinking of directx9 , I dont see that as a possibilty , they mention two wmp10's running ... this simply dosent work in xp .
