Puppy Linux is a very good OS for this purpose with older machines. Newer machines, too...I have my own laptop set up to dual boot Window$ XP and Puppy Linux just because, if all I need is to quickly boot up and connect to the Internet, Puppy boots up within 1 minute after a cold start.
Using mplayer within Puppy Linux should work OK for most Windows Media codec versions.
