i installed a new SATA drive and am going to use it for my OS. i have a bunch of movies on my other HD which is my slave drive. if i try to view them this way i get sound but no picture. if i disable my SATA drive and go back to my other HD (which still has windows-same versions also SP2) the movies will play normally. i normally use Winamp 5. i have tried winamp, and WMP 10 but neither will play the movies. anyone know what is going on? BTW all the other files seem to work fine. if you want any more specifics let me know. i tried to cover everything i can think of
 
re-install DIVX?

Something you said in your post caught my eye, you have the only PATA HD in your computer set as slave when you are booting off of your SATA drive?
 
no i haven't tried reinstalling divx. i will get to that and see if it works. i hadn't really thought of it before, but it is dumb of me to have my PATA as slave since the SATA drive automatically boots anyways. i will fix that. thanks!
