Use a real DVD, not one you did burn in your computer. Most of the time, self made DVD's don't contain the correct DVD format. 99,99% of the video files you can view on your computer, tablet or smart phone can't be played when burned on a DVD. DVD players only accept a limited part of the formats.

Video images transferred to PC are not as sharp as when played back on camera LCD

How about different videos do they have the same resolution? If yes the problem here is not with the video from the camera it can be the resolution of your computer , because if the video card of your computer is not high and the resolution is also not that high video will not look sharp when play to the computer compare when play directly from the camera...

Hope that helps.........

My sreen is not working all colors no pictures

This sounds like you may need to replace the Micro's LCD screen. You could probably buy one for cheap on eBay or buy a really cheap Micro and put it's screen into your Micro. You said it still plays audio, so it sounds to me like it's still working and not bricked. If it still syncs with your computer then it would be worth replacing the LCD screen.

I made a video tutorial a while back that shows you step-by-step how to replace your LCD screen.

How do i play whats on the memory card nothing plays video only audio. or what do i need to convert it

First, make sure you have it on CARD (and not DISK), and on the "playback" (and not record) mode. Next, does the camera play back other video clips normally, but just not a specific clip ?
Does the selected video clip frame (index) shown on the LCD screen have a picture ? If not, i.e. it is blank (dark), then it is likely that no video was recorded (i.e. just the audio) when you were shooting that video clip.
If there is a picture (of the video clip frame index on the LCD screen) and only audio is playing, try downloading the clip (from the SD card) to your computer, or simply try to play the video on the SD card (inserted directly into your SD card reader on your computer, or via a USB SD card reader) and see if the video clip will play normally on your computer.

My acer monitor will not play videos in full screen. The resolution is set at 1440x900. When i try to put it into full screen, there is a white screen but you can still hear the video.

Try this.

Disable hardware accelerating on your adobe flash player Settings.

Can be done by Right Clicking the Video and selecting settings

Then uncheck the hardware accleration. Then see if you can play in full screen.
