I'm doing a Clean install with XP Pro, I had previously installed a bunch of codecs (I ain't never touching the Kazaa lite codec pack again) which eventually made all media go wierd - such as I couldn't play Music CD's unless I burned it to my Hard Drive (no, the sound wasn't muted)

Anyway, I'd like to know how I can go about installing a minimalistic codec pack consisting of .mkv and the ffdshow package.

I'm unsure of which is the correct version to install first, I know an .mkv pack comes with ffdshow, but I don't know which version (if its out of date) anyway, I'm a mega Anime Fan, so I need to play all that stuff.

(.ogm .ogg... etc... etc...) - does the .mkv deal with these as well? or do I need ogg vorbis etc...

Thanks for your help [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
