My bad. Follow the instructions and it works.
1. Make the necessary registry change to XP exactly as the Microsoft
knowledgebase article says to.

Good bye message :). To insert video clip in a powerpoint 2003 slide click on
Slideshow, Action Buttons, the Action Button: Movie icon, Then drag the
crosshairs to form a box wherever you want the icon on your slide, a popup
box appears click on Run Program, Browse, Change Files of Type to All Files
and choose your media clip. Finally click on OK and don't forget to save.
3. Now open Media Player 10 and go to Tools, Options, Performance, Advanced,
and check Enable Full Screen Mode Switch and uncheck Display Full Screen
Controls.
4. Finish making your powerpoint presentation and when play it click on the
video icon on the slide you put it on and as soon as the video clip loads do
a Cntrl + Enter to put it in full screen mode (Esc returns it to regular
mode). Oh and you you need to have it on X2. Have fun. Thanks guys. Peace.

either set up the links so they work as long as the PPT and the linked files
stay together in the same folder or to embed them if you no longer need the
links.
Post by Callumbut whenever you click the link from the presentation, an
annoying message comes up. I have searched everywhere for a solution to
