Default Playing both GW and Videos with dual screen

I used to play WoW a lot and I would get kinda bored, so I got the idea of surfing on the internet and watching videos on youtube and stuff while playing. It was really nice and entertaining and it worked perfectly fine. I could even download movies and play them full screen on the other monitor while playing world of warcraft and it would work perfectly fine.

But now that I've been playing Guild Wars recently, I've noticed that every time I play a movie, it will stop very soon after I reclick the windowed mode of guild wars. I thought maybe it had to do with processing power or something, so I checked in the windows task manager. Strangely enough, WoW actuallyed used 3 more times of mem usage than GW.

So what could the problem be? Is my computer unable to support both guild wars and a video? This happens on both videos and movies coming from online websites like youtube, and also my harddrive. Every time I click and move in guild wars, the movie audio keeps going (it may get scratchy) and the video usually stops. If i let it run, the video may change images, but it is unnacceptable for enjoyment.

What I tryed:
Lowering Graphics in GW to the lowest possible, it still happens.


Thanks for all who contribute!
