    I recently formatted my pc and every time i download real player i have a problem. It wont play any of the downloaded videos which my old real player used to. I have the updated flash installed but it still stays a black screen. It plays music fine but it is just silent black screen on videos. Any ideas anyone, its really starting to get to me
