videos

Ihave windows 2000 sp4 and I cannot watch videos they start then fade then
start etc.. Am i missing some software? Help I really need this for my work.

What does this have to do with Windows Update? Repost to one of the relevant
Windows 2k groups.

Videos, eh?

Much like other types of files - video can be unique - as in what
application(s) can open them and what codecs they require to decode them so
you can watch them.

What you would need to be is *very* specific about what type of videos you
are trying to watch (file extension, reported codec required (GSpot is a
utility that can tell you that), etc...)

Also - I am unsure why you posted that question here - in a newsgroup about
Windows Update. If you have your Windows machine up to date - this is not a
Windows Update issue (although Windows 2000 is pretty close to obsolete
IMHO.)
