Hey Dane any time i have a problem veiwing or reading something, I go to zdnet.com. They have lots of players/readers there> I am sure they have an mpeg player you can download to play Mpegs with.Kind of hard to beleive media player wont do it, seein as how microsoft claims it will play any file, but alas that is MS for you.Just type mpeg player into the search engine at zdnet and voila> Chuck
