Vidolan VLC works


Thanks CharlieVA for suggesting Videolan VLC Player. Its Free and it works!!
Here are the steps, so everyone can benefit.
1. Download Videolan VLC Player from the Internet. Click Run. Like all free software adding them and their partners to toolbars etc is pre checked. Uncheck all the ones you do not want and click Next until finished. There will be a clown hat at the bottom of your screen. Click it to launch the software.
2. Right click on the Windows icon, then Control Panel, then Hardware/ Sound, you will see Autoplay under Devices and Printers
3. Click on Change Default Settings for Media or Devices. For ‘Play DVD and for enhanced DVD’, choose Videolan VLC as the default option from the drop down.

VLC issue

I just installed a new video card last night, and everything seems to be working fine.
I've got the latest drivers, software updates, blah blah blah.
Except...

when i play a show/movie whatever in VLC, and i click to fullscreen the video file, the screen goes blank for a few seconds (3 to 4) before it comes back on. The audio also goes out as well (although thats probably because i'm using the audio pass-through feature of my video card).
This has never happened before.
I've updated VLC to the latest version, and re-installed it after i installed the new video card.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
