I am running Windows Vista Ultimate and when I stream videos from websites
like Gametrailers.com as either a Windows Media or a Quicktime file the video
is choppy and has sound issues. If I download the same video there is no
choppyness and once the stream is no longer on HTTP and is on CACHE it is
fine. I know i have enough bandwidth for the video and under statistics I
does not show any errors .I have all the latest drivers and service packs.
And my PC specs are the following.



Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 (2.4 Ghz)
Graphics Card: Nvidia 8800 GT 512 MB
RAM: 2 GB of DDR2
Motherboard: 680I SLI (Not Running Dual graphics cards)


I have reinstalled Vista as both 32 bit and 64 bit to see if there was some
difference. I also have this same issue on my Laptop running Vista.

============================
Sounds like your internet connection
is slow...are you on dialup?

Maybe the following site will help you
determine your download speed:

Hi John. I am sure it is not a connection issue because I can stream the
video in flash without any problems. Also I could boot into Linux or even XP
and the problem is not there. I can try to load the same videos from my
school which has a very very fast connection and I would get the same issue.
