I have one .mp4 file. When I try to play this file with Windows Media Player, I encounter an error message "cannot play". How can I play .mp4 files ?

I have one .ram audio file. But, I am not able to play this file as it is not recognized by Windows Media Player.

What should I do to play this .ram file?

Give VLC Media Player a try. That program plays pretty much everything so it's a great program to have regardless.

For .mp4's VLC should play them too but if it doesn't I know that Winamp does.

the .ram file is a Real Media format and I cannot recommend anyone instal Real Player.

Google Real Alternative Player.
