Re: Video will not play

its your codec, i think its out dated.

download the latest codecs at codecs.com , there are also specific players for different file formats.

one of the most completed codec pack is the XP codec pack. it also comes with a media player classic, which should be able to play most of the video formats out there, this player also works best even for old computers.

good luck.
