Request to download an Indio Codec (only relates to computers running Windows XP with service pack 1)

The video parts of the game, which appear at the start and on exiting, require a video player tool to run. This is called an Indio codec.

When this game was released, this codec was included as part of Windows XP. Microsoft recently decided not to include this Indio codec in Windows XP Service Pack 1. Users with new computers running Windows XP Service Pack 1 now receive an error message requesting them to download this codec for US$14.

If you are experiencing this problem, you have two options:

(a) Option 1 - download 2 small files which will play 5 seconds of the video sections and then skip to the game; or

(b) Option 2 - download 2 larger files which will play the full videos.

Note that each option has TWO files associated with it. You must individually download BOTH files for the option you select.

Instructions:

(a) right click on the links below (high or low res)

(b) select the option to Save Target As...

(c) save the files to the following location C:\Program Files\SaddleClub\Video (note, if you originally saved the game to a location other than the C:\ drive, you will have to save these files to the "Video" folder which is inside the Saddle Club folder at that location)

(d) click "yes" to overwrite the existing file. Note, if you are not asked to overwrite the file, you have not saved the files to the correct location. Follow the instructions above and try again.
