    I recently bought the F3 and installed an extra 1GB stick of Ram in it. Everything is fine except I cant get any video to work. I try to play movies i have on my desktop, but it wont work. Is there another program i have to dl or do i have to adjust something to get the videos/movies to work?

    Looks like you need a codec.

    Try the CCCP codec.

    Or use the VLC media player, no external codec packs required.

    Use both (VLC has it uses). But yeah, I also recommend CCCP.
