Stop me from blowing my comp up

So, I got this project ready and am having some serious ass OUTputing problems.

I've been trying a lot of this and that, mov files, avi files, mp4. then cinepak compression, DVNTSC, you get the idea.
I need a format that can be read in a WINDOWS platform.

In FCP3, this was no problem.. now HD is hard on its ass and I dont know why.
Please help my fellow DVXer brothers~

Please explain what you are trying to do and why? Remember, if the Windows machine cannot read it, it may be the version of QT it is working with that is the issue.

Hello again SlapDragon, you are da man!

Well basically, Ive been outputing in different formats already and all work on my mac. On Windows however, MP4 is read as audio only, no video. MOV cannot be read and unknown.
My client is windows based so this might be a problem.
~thanks

Have them upgrade to the latest version of Quicktime. Even AVI files can be tough since MS started dumping them for the more controllable alternative of WMV9, but WMV9 sucks in many ways (including its proprietary use of MPEG-4), witness that your own MP4, an open format, falls flat.

If they download the free QT player it will work fine no matter how you deploy it.
