There are some on (one of) Microsoft's websites. I remember downloading some to test out our 10mb connection

Are you answering an imaginary question? lol.

It plays loads of stuff but I often get errors with it, fast forwarding through some video clips causes corruption too, I don't know if this is specific to file type.

It is pretty good though

I don't get that problem, but I rarely fastforward or rewind.

I just love that it has played every video file I throw at it

There was a free open source animated film on bittorrent(think its legal), forget what it's called though.

From the linked microsoft page:

Optimum Configuration
(to play 1080p video with 5.1 surround sound)
# Windows XP
# Windows Media Player 10
# DirectX 9.0
# 3.0 GHz processor or equivalent
# 512 MB of RAM
# 128 MB video card
# 1920 x 1440 screen resolution
# 24-bit 96 kHz multichannel sound card
# 5.1 surround sound speaker system

1920 x 1440 screen resolution - 1440 ??? I thought 1200 was sufficient, in that 1200 > 1080

The above has links to legal downloads of videos (no illegal stuff there). There is an HD section there as well.

You do not have to use the zudeo application - just download the torrent file and use in your favourite torrent app).

1200 is enough. I think the 1440 is to take into account if you're playing in a window and not in fullscreen.

If you searched or indeed looked through the right section of the forums you'd have found this which I posted about a week ago when someone else asked the same question:
