This is a problem I have experienced on a small number of machines.  It is
not a video driver problem as I have had it fail using I845 graphics
(onboard), NForce-II graphics (card), Matrox graphics (card).  I have
changed the video card on a machine and had the same problem with & without
the new card.

I use WIN 2K professional & Win2K server.

Whatever it is, it causes *instant* BSOD whan an mpeg video clip is played.
This happens on playing from file, or using multicast.

If the people who maintain VLC on Windows are interested I can be their
Guinea-Pig to define the problem.
