I have a laptop with XP/2 and a desktop, also with XP/2. When I open either
PC I have the default page as CNN news. CNN lists topics, some of which
contain movie segments. I have the latest Shockwave installed on both
machines.

Neither PC will show these segments. I get black boxes where the moving
content should be shown. Both machines show movie content from DVD.

I also have a laptop with Vista (don't like it much) but this does show
movie content.

What should I do to show movie content on my XP machines?

Many thanks,

Peter.

Hello,

Try installing Shockwave Flash from here
http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

If that does not work, install the standalone version from here
