If you really want to get the full-service package, you should uninstall any codec packs that you may have added (like Nimo or DivX, Angel Potion, or any others) and try one of these all-in-one things (full or basic---the full includes a player and an appliance that tells you what codec a particular movie needs):

P.S. now back to my card (joke) cant figure it out, and i sure dont want to splash out on a new monitor just yet, i like this one 19" and works fine on the other card???
It seems MS prefers you use their codecs so they don't supply any old one you may need. But there are really things in the world that work even if untested by MS.
