    Hey everyone. Just downloaded the Top Gear episode with the Zonda, F430 and Ford GT in Paris but when it plays in Windows Media Player it only plays the sound and doesn't show the video! Anybody know what I can do to see the picture? Thanks!

    Try that one, its the one I have and it downloaded REAL quick and is a pretty good resolution. I would say its just the file you got, not the computer.

    You do not have the appropriate codecs. You need to download a codec pack which would have all the usual codecs packed in it.

    The codec pack that I like to use is Defiler pack because it contains no rubbish codecs that could cause more problems.

    Download, install and give that a go.

    hmm, tough one. Try download a program called "Video LAN". That can play sometimes stubborn files. Also try restarting your computer after installing the codecs.

    If it still doesnt work, it may just be a dodgy file.
