View video downloads

Hi there.
I'm having trouble viewing video downloads as videos.
When the download is launched in my Windows Media player all I hear are the words but no picture.
Iv got Windows XP & use Firefox.
Can any one help please as I really want to see the Mighty Boosh vids Iv downloaded?

Thanks in advance DKWID30

Sorry... couldn't resist it !!!

Anyway, where were we ???...

Oh, yeah !

You will hear MANY comments, arguments and maybe even savage attacks about what I am about to recommend to you...
(Thing is that there are many CODEC packs available out there !!!)

The one I recommend is simple, clean, safe and a pure-bred 'no-brainer'...
The fact that it also works with everything I have ever tried might be a factor in its favour, hmmm ?

Look in my signature below...

You will see Cole2k Codecs

Click on that link - Download the file - Install it - SHUTDOWN your comp - Start it again and try the movie file...
(If it doesn't work, come back here and bang on the counter until somebody shows !!!)

Now you will have any amazingly comprehensive and CLEAN installation of the great majority of CODECS you will need for anything.
(CODEC = COderDECoder)
