Question Unable to watch movies

Hello Everyone. I have been using Limewire now for about 3 months. I recently upgraded to the Limewire Pro. I am using Windows XP on a Gateway Computer. I have Windows Media Player 9 on my computer. After I download a movie the movie does not play. I have tried several different extension movies. I tried a movie with the *mpg extension and a movie with the *wmv extension. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?? I can listen to songs through Windows Media. Any help would greatly be appreciated.

My easiest answer to watching movies is to turn the TV on lol

You need codecs my boy (or girl): http://www.divx-digest.com/software/nimo_pack.html

Codecs are miniature programs that encode or decode media from one format to another.

As a back up player you might wanna get DivX player &/or VLC (which has inbuilt codecs, & free & plays all except the odd wmv file) http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (choose the nearest mirror site.)

Happy watching
