Hmm....I'm running Windows XP and my Windows Media Player is version 8.00.00.487.  Will try updating to WMP 9.0 or running it through Realplayer.  Like I said, the audio is fine, but the video is all garbled!

I think that your processor speed can affect your video speed too...that and your 3d card.

Also you may want to check by pressing ctrl + alt + del your system idle process...it shouldnt be too high...or it may run the video slow

I haven't had any trouble with any viewing any other videos (quicktime, real, wmv, divx or otherwise) so I'm not sure what the problem could be.  Checked my System Idle Process -- 92!  I'm thinking that's kinda high.   I don't think it's the problem in this case, but how do I lower it, for future reference?  BTW, my Windows Media Player Update is going to take an hour!   Ah, dontcha just love obsolete dial-up!

Ok ladies and gents, I got the video working.  I just needed to update to WMP 9.  I don't know if someone else wants to check this file out in WMP 8 and see if it works for them (to see if it's just my comp or not) but it's working fine for me now!  Thanks for all your help and advice -- muchly appreciated!

92 is good for your system idle process...the lower the number...the less idling your computer is doing... so 99 is ideal for the idle process :)

Great! Im glad that the update worked for you!

Um, that video on my site is the entire sierra part.

The show was NOT about Sierra. It only mentioned Sierra for a few minutes.

Uh, hello everybody. I admit I don't come here often, but I've been trying for awhile to get ahold of this video. It appears that a few of you may have downloaded it from GSN back when it was still available, but not anymore.

I was wondering if any of you could be so kind as to provide me with a copy of it? I'd sure like to view the whole thing. You could send it to my email address.

Please...?:)

Actually, we video captured that segment from the TV broadcast. Sadly, we don't have the full show available for download. It was two hours in length though, so if anyone does have it, it would be a hefty download. Good luck finding it though.
