June 6, 2012Your graphic card should be a minimum of 256MB ram and a clock speed of 600 Mhz to play 1080p films.
If your machine meets or is better than this spec then check you have the right codecs installed.
The best codec pack for the job is CoreAVC but isnt free.
Alternatively FFDShow codec pack or VLC Media’s inbuilt codecs should be fine.

June 6, 2012It’s probably because your computer is missing something, maybe a codec or the movie file are bad. What type of error do you get? which media player do you use?
Try using VideoLan Media player: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/download-windows.html
It got built in support for most video format, so you don’t have to worry about installing codecs. VideoLan does all the job for you.

June 6, 2012U need better processor…..or use km player in realtime priority. That should help u
The processor speed is fine, the graphics adapter and memory would have more to do with not playing HD videos. Make sure your video drivers are up to date and either install the codecs or the media players suggested that self contain the codecs (sometimes installing the wrong codecs can cause other problems). I’d suggest increasing your RAM to help matters, also. Low memory can cause lag in response or stuttering of playback if background programs or services are running at the same time HD videos are playing.

June 9, 2012Try VLC Player, if still not working, go to tools > preferences.
in the video tab, change your out to DIrectX or OpenGL.
This will force the video to process on your video card.
if still not working, maybe your video card is not capable of playing HD videos. Try updating your Video Card Drivers.
hope this helps.
thanks…

June 9, 2012What is your screen resolution? If it is less than 1080 pixels high, a 1080p video won’t fit on your screen
