Just sounds like CPU is hanging at 100%. Is it just certain files or all media files?
Make sure computer meets min specifications to play them esp. DIVX/XVID files.
Sometimes Windows has problems with non-conventional filenames that are too long or contain illegal characters. Other times the files are corrupted. Media Player Classic is quite small so definately not a resource hog.

Also verify overlay(output) settings in Media Player Classic and test your default video settings with DirectX diag.
