I just got my media drive working, and i like vista very much now. theres only one problem, how can I get all the codecs for my videos? some of my videos work, but alot of them that i could play in xp wont work. (mostly the avi and hi def ones) they say the format isnt recognised, or they just play sound.

Also whats an iso mounting program that will work with vista? ive tried elby, alcohol, nero, daemon, etc. im using x64

and how can i get media center to play these movies too? i had this problem in xp but didnt think much of it because i didnt like media center in xp, but i really like vista's media center.

What about Divx codec and have you also tried the latest full K-Lite codec pack?
