I have a AMD T-bird system, running windows ME with 384MB of ram.

Whenever I attempt to play a video file from my CD I can hear the unit constantly reving up and spinning down. The movie never plays and I have to reboot the system. The CD unit is a 24x IDE.

Any suggestion?

You're not giving enough info. What kind of video file? What program are you trying to use to display the files? Is DMA enabled on the cd drive?

Like answer 1. Need a little bit more info. Did you try updating your Media Player? Maybe those files are not supported by it. Did you try DivX download?
