    Everytime I try to watch a downloaded show, the video starts to stutter in windows media player and media center, sometimes youtube videos even do as well?

    whats the problem?

    it was working fine a couple of weeks ago.

    I have not downloaded any new software or anything.

    Try updating your video card driver and Adobe flash.

    It says the video card is up to date and adobe flash.. nothing changed..

    I tried downloading divx to see if it was any different.. but the picture is still stuttering...

    I've tried

    WINDOWS MEDIA CENTER
    WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER
    DIVX

    all stutter on those..

    Try using vlc player to play your videos, it's one of the best.
