If your videos aren't playing properly, I'd recommend that you download the latest version of Windows Media Player from-

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows...

If some videos don't play on the windows media player, then the problem would mostly be because your computer doesn't have the video codecs required to play that video. A video codec is a device or software that enables video compression and or decompression for digital video. The compression usually employs lossy data compression.

If the videos aren't playing, I suggest you download a complete Codec packakge like XP Codec Pack from

XP Codec Pack is one of the most complete codec pack which helps you to play all major audio and video formats. Go to http://www.free-codecs.com/ for more codecs.
