On many sites downloading WMV videos is done the old fashioned way, by clicking on the name of the title and having it go to a designated download folder. Sure, the video can then be played with RealPlayer; however, it’s not the same process as using the convenient “Download This Video” feature.

Hi, - Does the issue occur with all the.wmv video files or just the sample video in question? If the problem affects all or most of the video files you play (as opposed to just a few specific files), the driver software for your video card (also known as a display adapter, video adapter, graphics adapter, or graphics board) might be out-of-date. Visit the manufacturer’s website and download and install the latest Windows 7 compatible drivers. For more information on updating drivers, see Updating the drivers to the latest version from the manufacturer’s website should take care of the hardware acceleration issue as well.
If the issue does not get fixed, it would indicate a limitation with the current video card. I’d recommend you to contact the video card manufacturer for further assistance.
