Get your firewire cable out, install WINDV from google.com and you're done.

Can i just check something i downloaded the file which is 38kb from http://windv.mourek.cz/ i tryed to open the files without the ilink cable ready and it went onto wmp and said ''Windows Media Player cannot play the file'' is this normal without the inlink insertet ? just wanted to check ??
