media player 11 is the bomb! To get the avis to play, download Gspot, drag the avi file or whatever file is missing a codec into the box and it tells you which audio and video codecs that are installed and those that are missing, you then google the codec name and download/install, such as Xvid 1.1.3, Piece of cake. got all my video and audio files working great.

Prompted by MSWINDOWS I unfortunately downloaded WMP11 and found it would not play my AVi videos. This is due, I understand, to the fact that MS have not included all the codecs needed to run this software, so who will crack down on MS?

Also, in attempting to `role back' to WMP10 I found that previous programmes were corrupted, I understand that this was arranged by MS to happen!!
Eventually the only way to reinstall WMP10 was to FORMAT my hard drive and spend hours reinstalling everything from scratch.

Warning, do not download WMP11.

I had high hopes of Vista. But after using is for 2 weeks now; it is one of the really bad os I have ever used since Windows was given birth. Vista is slower than Windows 2000 and takes a lot of time to even boot up. Since I am inclined to music; the first things I tried is the Windows Media Player. This is one of the worst players I have ever used. So slow and so un-user friendly. The looks are very similar to the old versions and I am completely no no for this. I am now reverting to my old XP Professional. Alternatively instead of corrupting your system with codec's; I would strongly recommend using the latest version of the VLC Player. VLC may not look good; but they are a one stop alternative for all your music and video's issues.
