They are wmv files. What version of windows media player do you have and what player is that you have? It looks like you have some other player set as default for .wmv files and it can't play them. Go launch Windows media player 10 (if you do not have it get it at windows update or
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...0/default.aspx

Go to tools/ options/ file types and make sure wmv is selected. In fact I would say just click select all.
