I'm using QT3 and sys 8.1; it seems to look at .avis okay, although in some
cases it won't play the sound. Looking at the info for the file in
Movieplayer those .avis have some kind of sound format that it doesn't know
about. They play okay (but slightly more jerkily) in SoftWindows 95.
Anyway, that's the opposite problem from yours. Others are certainly okay.

Do you have the Indeo Video and Intel Raw extensions? Although I'm not
sure, I believe that they're necessary over and above having QT3.

I don't know anything about Syquest drivers- sorry.
