Free Media Player (VLC)
This guide is going to show you how to install a completely free media player, which in my opinion is the best one available at the moment. VLC will play just about any file you throw at it. So if you are sick and tired of Windows media player always needing codecs, not playing audio or one of the other hundred thousand problems that can occur.. then I would suggest you try VLC!
