SYMPTOMS

The Windows XP Installable File System Kit (IFSKIT) contains two DVDs of the IFSKIT Conference 1994 Videos. These DVDs contain training material with an .asf extension. The second DVD contains several files with an .asf extension that run under Windows Media Player. It also contains two .asx files. These two files are not necessary. These files are indexes and will not run under Windows Media Player. Double-clicking on them will launch Windows Media player but the files will not play. Instead an error message will appear:
Windows Media Player Error

The system cannot find the file specified.

CAUSE

The .asx files are index files and are not meant to be played.

RESOLUTION

Use the .asf files only.

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
