i was trying to watch the new brute thing on gametrailers.com and right when it starts to play my screen turns 3/4 black and the top starts shaking like crazy. it also happened when i tried to watch somones montage. i think it might have somthing to do with windows media player, do you guys know what is happening.

You do realize that this is a Halo PC forum, and not a tech forum, right?

I had this problem as well. Try watching the lower resolution version, or updating your graphics drivers. It happened for me because I was using an older set of drivers so I could "See the colors". Once I updated, the high res videos worked fine.

I had a problem similar to this but it split my screen in half, one side was really pink tinted. It was split at about a 45 degree angle down the middle of the playing movies screen, but only in Windows media player, I rolled back my computer to the day before the problem and it was fine after that. If its always like that, try updating to the new windows player, its at 11 now.
