Windows Vista ITunes problem - ITunes fails to play videos, screen keeps freezing during playback.

Possible Fix - Find where file vbscript.dll is on your PC (usually C:\Windows\System32)

Next you need to go to start -> accessories and the right click on command prompt and click "run as administrator"->

next type "cd C:\Windows\System32" (use folder where you found the dlll above)

next enter "regsvr32 vbscript.dll"

This should then confirm that vbscript has been registered

Try playing another video in ITunes to see if this fixes the problem
