I browsed to video file in the task scheduler but did not run...

For simplicity sake..I am going to run the video in different computer where VLC player install may  not be allowed..in this case how can I make the video  run from the built-in windows media player ?

Bill Prew approach is easier and it already works..I just wanted the video to run in maximized mode.
