codec
 

Hi, im am pretty new to all this comp stuff, and downloading movies is becoming a bit of a nightmare.lol.
anyway if someone could help me out on this, ive downloaded codec cos some files wont play, so what am i doing wrong (now remember im computer thick, so make it simple), files still wont play and i get a message that still reports that i need codec, havent i opened the download properly or am i being really thick and missing out something easy that i should have thought of?.
Help is needed soon cos im thinking of turning to drink.lol

upper right - button called search - click. Type in codecs
