OK,

After removing klite mega codec pack and installing vista, I was able to run 99% of all types of media files (INCLUDING .MOV and .MP4 WOOHOO!!).

I ran into a bit of trouble with some .avi files I have, wmp11 would crash when I tried to play them. I reported the crash and microsoft informed me it had to do with xvid. So I went to xvid's home page, downloaded and installed the updated xvid component, and now EVERY video I have attempted now plays correctly, full screen!

Tom, I only have one small issue now: I have GameEx set to play a random video when it starts, sometimes that video will playback in the top-left corner of my screen, displayed at 1/4 of it's size. I can play the same video using the "multimedia" category within GameEx with no trouble at all, full screen.

Vista uses ffdshow amongst other codecs but since everything works correctly within the "multimedia" tab of GameEx, I don't think it's a codec tweak I need to do.
