Media files = Death...Help!!!!

Anytime I click on a video file link the Windows media player opens up and a few seconds later my machine turns off....then it reboots to the memory screen and freezes......whats up with this?

I am using Windows Me on an IBM 600e laptop with a 366 mhz processor and 128 mb memory....pretty standard stuff.

You shouldn't be running ME at all. I was stuck with ME a long time ago and I finally got it stable my booting without explorer as a shell. If you can afford an online purchase I would download windows 2000 from an online retailer and install that. I bet all your problems would be solved.

No offense if you like ME, but I have to agree here. Of all the Windows OSs I've used from 3.0 on up, I've found ME to be the least stable and the weakest memory manager. Your system wouldn't be able to take much advantage of XP (as it needs at least 256MB of RAM) but 2000 will probably hit the sweet spot. Just make sure you get all those service packs first thing.

Most likely what you're experiencing is an error related to ME simply not cooperating. You may want to get all the relevant updates from Windows Update before you upgrade to a newer OS, as one of those patches may fix the problem.

Hahahaha, I knew someone was about to say that, and quite frankly I couldn't agree more!
