Having trouble viewing the movies?

For some reason the movies are not playing once on the ThinkQuest server. It thinks they are text files. If you download the file to your computer and remove the .txt extension, they will play. We are truly sorry for this inconvenience.

The movies are MPEG-4 files which can be played back using Quicktime, or a number of other media players. If you are having trouble viewing them we reccommend that you:

1. Download and install Quicktime

If you are running Windows 2000 or XP: You can download the latest version of Quicktime from here.

If you are running Windows 98 or ME: You can download an older version of Quicktime from here.

If you are using MacOS 8.6 or higher: Ignore this step, you will already have a compatible version installed.

2. Download the video to your computer

If you are still having trouble, Right-Click on the movie (Ctrl-Click on a Mac) and save it to your computer.

Then open the file with Quicktime Player.
