Windows Media Player stinketh. I much more highly recommend the free DivX player, which works beautifully even on my old Windows 98-based system, and gives me smooth video even when Windows Media chokes (which is usually, in my experience). The only thing I've noticed (and this is probably because my system is Teh Primitive) is that sometimes the sound and picture get out of sync or I get a slight crackle in the soundtrack, but hitting the space key to pause for a couple of seconds and then hitting it again to resume always fixes the problem.
