    try re-installing wmp10 if not it may be the software, it may not have installed the codecs needed to play the movies

    :j You can only put skybybroadband on to one pc, as it wont work on another, skybybroadband will work with WMP11 and W Media centre, download wmp11 from m$ and see if that works also if not email sky via there skybybroadband website and ask them what else you need it works fine on mine but then I'm beta testing vista which is what it's ment for. hope this helps T:j
