Download and follow the step-by-step instructions from here:
http://homepage.mac.com/major4/download.html
Make sure you download the new versions of the mencoder and mplayer binaries too.

Sounds like you need some divx & xvid codecs, I honestly don't know where to find them, but google should lead you in the right direction 
I'll have a look myself and see if I find anything.

codec right that is foreign to me  will have a look for them thanks, been using vlc so far but would be nice to be able to use quicktime, windows media player and real player for a change.
cheers

Also, the following may help:

Hold down the Option key whilst restarting until the boot menu appears:

This is more a software advice question rather than a problem but i need to design a leaflet for college and publisher is not compatible on a mac so i was wondering if you can recommend something, anything apart from quarkxpress.
It is going to be A4 size and prefferably folding into 3 sections with print on both sides, can you recommend anything that can make the job easier when printing etc so it is nicely presented.
Cheers

Apple Pages will do the job - comes with some nice templates too.
