thanks.

The old media player, which I mistakenly called 'classic,' which is the name of another video player as flat pointed out, can be found...

My computer --> C: (whatever drive the windows install is on) --> Program Files --> Windows Media Player

Inside is an icon that should read mplayer2 and looks like a studio clapboard (I think that's what they're called).

Like I said, I can never get the automatic codec download thing to work with WMP10, but if I open the file with the older WMP then it usually solves the problem. Once the codec is downloaded then it usually opens in WMP10.
