Yea the SSD.
If I suspected my SSD, I would do a diskcheck.
After that, if it was still glitchy, then I would tend to believe that the OS is damaged, not the SSD.
Before doing that, do a Diskcheck.
I'm not suggesting that it will resolve all your problems, but it will guarantee that you don't do a fresh install on a corrupt hard drive.
What is the error message...
Have you tried reinstalling vlc?
Is this with all videos or just one?
Have you tried more then one video....?
How about just opening an audio file....
VLC is crashing?

Yea I have changed the SSD and installed a fresh OS on it, will be removing the sound card once I get home.

Yes, the sound card can cause this problem.

Get new what?
SSD?
From what I'm told, the M4 is a very stable SSD, so I'd be more inclined to believe that the OS is corrupt, than to think that the SSD is toast.
Glad you got your problem resolved! :bounce:

The amount of write cycles for a modern SSD is substantially high and with proper optimization you can extend the life-span of an SSD even further.
It may be worth doing a MemTest if no other...
sounds like some files were corrupted and/or your favorite antispyware program did something.
delete vlc, restart, reinstall.
just go ahead and reinstall windows now, else you will be wasting time messing with.

Reinstalled drivers switched back to pc speakers using Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium Sound Card but now pc locks up takes forever to load anything might need to reinstall windows.
When was the last time video worked as you expected? What changed between that time and now that it's not working? Windows updates? Software installs? Driver updates? Etc...
