Hey, I had this exact same issue a couple weeks ago when I reformatted. It turned out that the new video drivers I downloaded were causing some issues, so instead of the 91.31 drivers, I had to go back to the 81.95 drivers. Do that, and download the XVid and Divx codecs as well, if you haven't already.
