I've been noticing as of late that my Windows Media Player for some reason cannot handle video and audio synching. Before, on some occasions i would notice that after about 15 seconds, there was maybe a second delay in the video but this was rare.

Nowadays, for just about anything that i don't play off a browser, my media player is off by a few seconds within a minute. I seem to have every imaginable codec installed and the new version of Divx seems to be having no problem at all handling things.

Not only that, before my media player would cut or slow down if i started browsing or just about soing anything. Divx is giving no such problems at all.

This situation has made me feel very unhappy in the pants.

Try reinstalling it. Or using some different player. Media Player Classic is quite nice.

mplayer2 gives me the same problems though. tried reinstallign the codecs for media player .. no success.
