every time I try to play a Video File in WMP v 9 or v10 XP will freeze.
It will show the first frame and locks up XP, to the point that even the
Cap'sLock key on the keybroad won't work. The only out is to power off to
rebot
Anyone with an idea?

First, try installing another software for video playing.
If not, check you have the latest codecs (like divx, avi, etc.)
If this doesn't works, check if you have enought memory to play videos in
the media player, because the latest versions of media player are for big
machines.
Have a nice time.
 
did you checked if you have enough memory for playing videos?
you could try this also: associate the video files with only one programe
(like windows media). Sometimes a lot of programs with multiple file
associations make trouble when you try to play video files.
