IE7 video problems

Internet Explorer 7 used to work fine, then something happened and now I have
an issue with playing videos. I can't make a connection as to what type of
videos won't play, but here's what happens. Youtube and Google videos work
fine. However, Yahoo's music videos do not. It seems like any video that
opens in a new window does not work, and it crashes IE all together.

This is the error signature I get:
AppName: iexplore.exe AppVer: 7.0.6000.16512 ModName: quartz.dll
ModVer: 6.5.2600.2749 Offset: 0003155d

Specs:
O/S: Windows Home Edition for XP - Version 5.1 (Build
2600.xpsp_sp2_grd.070227-2254 : Service Pack 2)
Internet Explorer 7 (Version 7.0.5730.11)

I don't think it's my video card because IE plays other videos, plus all of
my online games work. Windows is up to date; I've run virus checks and
nothing fixes it. If you need any other info, I'd be happy to give it.
Thanks!

It may be a problem with defect codecs for video files. You should read

That seems to make sense to me, but I don't know how to find the faulty
codec since all files are streaming and I can't open them with GSpot. Plus
I'm not sure where they are on my computer even if I could find the bad one.
Suggestions?
