.wmvs started playing like shit for no reason

So I open up a .wmv file this morning and it starts playing like shit. Takes like 5 seconds to even start playing, and 5 seconds if I try to skip anywhere.

When I went to bed last night everything ran fine. I haven't installed anything new in the sense of codecs or drivers.

I reinstalled my Codec pack (CCCP), updated my drivers for my graphics card, and it still fucks up on me. I haven't been able to figure anything out and I am really not looking forward to having to reinstall Windows until my current job is up in 5 weeks.

Anybody have any ideas? S=

I've had that happen to random movies, but I'm not sure what causes it. So I can't really help, other than to say I've seen it happen too.

It not random, it's ALL .wmvs now.

A good .wmv > .avi converter would be a plus.
