Hello, And thank you for having this forum available for people to get HELP with computor questions. I recently built a new computor strictly for my living room so I can install movies on the computor for the kids and play them through my T.V. I installed windows xp media center edition. I saw this program at fry's called DVD copy 4 that can convert movies to H.264 so that they are smaller file sizes so I purchased it. I converted a movie and then it would'nt play. DUH, I did'nt know that I needed a decoder or something like that, Nice of intervideo to leave that part out of their user manual. And after reading an article here about H.264 faq's and conversion guides I now understand why it would'nt play. So, Can anybody help me understand what I need to put H.264 converted movies onto my compter ( In which I have three extra internal hard drives and one external hard drive to install them on) so I can play them using windows media center. I was reading in the article about x264 and Nero 7. However, I would like a little more understanding and help with this matter before I start installing all these programs on my computor that won't work or do what I need them to do. My computor procecessor is an AMD athalon 64 3300+ 2.20 GHz And, I have 1GB of Ram. I also installed a Radeon 9550 Video card.  So, Any insight and help with this question would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You,
The Drgntamer.
