Okay I just bought a New Laptop with all the bells and whistles and everything works fine except one BIG problem (specs for my system AKA System 1 in my signature)

Problem: A BIG part of my show is not only the Karaoke Selection, but the fact that I actually VJ (A Lot) During the Show. Which means I must be able to play the latest Videos/Line Dances in between singers. Anyways Whenever I click the "Video" button in Hoster on the main screen and go in and Select a video, the video Immediately drops down into my list (as it should) but what takes place next is a little bit concerning.

Hoster for about 7-10 seconds starts to freeze up and the little working icon starts doing something in the background. I think what's happening here is that Hoster is trying to communicate with Windows Media player and process the video into Hoster. (it's just my assumption) since Hoster uses WMP as the "engine" to play music Vvdeos. I've made all of the suggested changes (so I think). So what could be the problem? Anyone ever experience this problem?

My System 2 (again see signature for specs), does the same thing, but only for 3 seconds as opposed to 10. So needless to say last night I was all excited about firing up the New Laptop (as it took me 4 hours to load it all up) and doing the show. Oh Well, at least I had "Old Faithful" ;-)
