There, you will see a directory called Plugins. Look there for np-mswmp.dll, npdrmv2.dll, npdsplay.dll, and npwmsdrm.dll. Are they there? If not, then close SM and search your hard drive for them, and *copy* them to the plugin directory. Did this work? If not, then close SM, and open WMP. Click on Tools, Options, File Types, and it should be the 7th one you want [about wmv]. Make sure that is ticked. OK you way out and close WMP. Now restart SM. Did that work? If that didn't, then get yourself another program that plays wav files, such as QuickTime. I do not have the np-mswmp.dll file on my PC, even though I ran the installer. The other 3 files were in my Windows Media Player folder. I copied them to my Seamonkey plugins folder, but still no luck. How can I get a copy of the np-mswmp.dll file to add to my Seamonkey folder?

I'm out of ideas, where are these set? And as a side issue, shouldn't their size be in about:config? I have a related question: where can I change the default view for text from 100% to 110% on a permanent basis. I know how to change it under View -- Text Zoom --Other The reason I ask is that I recently replaced my 17 CRT (resolution set to 1280x1024 and was very readable) for a 19 LCD (resolution is 1440x990). Certain sites like Foxnews.com are relatively tiny at 100% but 110% is good. Changing the font sizes in preferences under appearance doesn't help. Tony, if you set the resolution on the LCD to the same 1280x1024 as you had on the CRT, how do things look?? or is this size not available on the LCD?? The LCD is won't do the 1024 portion. the old CRT was a square design and the LCD is wide screen design. Even setting the system (Win XP) properties to show larger icons/text doesn't cut it in SM. System looks fine, SM small. So, if you were to select any of the screen resolutions that has a vertical resolution of 1280 (like your old CRT had), how do the icon appear? Any to your liking? No, they appear squished. One good way to calibrate the screen is to load Google Earth and then with the globe visible, make it round. that sets a good approximation. Somethings wrong then! My understanding is that 1280x1024 means there are 1280 dots per inch on the vertical axis and 1024 on the horizontal. Similarly 1440x990 means there are 1440 on the vertical and 990 on the horizontal. If you are selecting a vertical setting of 1280, for characters to appear squished, you must be selecting a horizontal setting of well under 1024. The dimensions such as 1280x1024 are the width and height of the screen in pixels, not dots per inch. That makes sense! Even as I was typing my last, I was thinking about a 0.28 millimeter dot size that I recalled from an not so old monitor wondering how they got from about 100 dpi to over 1200 dpi so quick!!
