Hi,
If you're using Internet Explorer, try the following.
Open an Internet Explorer window.
Hold down the alt key and press x, then select Internet Options.
Select the Advanced tab, enter a tick in the box next to 'Use software rendering instead of GPU rendering', then click Apply and Ok to save this change.
Close all open Internet Explorer windows, then open it again and try playing a video.
Regards,
