my question is how can i reinstate the nero showtime/media player viewing options

620406 2007-12-12 01:47:00 Install K-like codex (www.free-codecs.com), and use Windows Media Player to play them. Whips the arse off Nero Showtime anyday.

Alternatively, use VLC media player (www.videolan.org).

Have a check in the autoplay options of the drive too, (right click on the drive in my computer, autoplay tab) and make sure it's not set to automatically play in Showtime.
