    WHEN I TRY TO PLAY A MOVIE ON MY PLAYER I GET THE ERROE MASSAGE WINDOWS MEDIA
    PLAYER CANNOT PLAY THE FILE. THE PLAYER DOES NOT SUPPORT THE FORMAT YOU ARE
    TRYING TO PLAY.

    I AM USING WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER VERSION 9.0, MY OPERATING SYSTEM IS WINDOWS
    98 SE, I GOT THIS ERROR MASSAGE WHEN I WAS TRAYING TO VIEW A MOVIE THAT WAS
    NOT COMPLETY DOWNLOADED. GSPOT SAYS THE FILE TYPE IS: ASF(.WMA/.WMV).

    THE ITEM DETALES ARE: TYPE VCD WRAPPER, ATTRIBUTES- ARCHIVE.DAT FILE.
    THE SIZE: 47.7MB WITH 50,102,272 BYTES USED.

    CAN SOMEONE HELP ME, IS THERE SOME TYPE OF CODAC I NEED TO PLAY THIS TYPE OF
    FILE. I DO HAVE MANY CODECS INSTALLED ON MY COMPUTER. LIKE DIVX, KAZZA CODEC
    PACK, MPEG-3,4 CODEC, AND SOME MORE.

    THANK YOU FOR ANY HELP ANYONE CAN GIVE ME.
