Need a video format that will play on Windows XP/7 out of the box

I am distributing an exe file that contains a video that needs to be able to be played on Windows XP & Windows 7 without ANY other software or codecs installed. This includes Windows Media Player, which many of my customers don't have installed.

Formats – bear with me, I mostly develop apps for other platforms. I don't normally deal with a/v stuff or Windows stuff so my terminology is probably off – I've tried and had no success with:

.mp4
.ogv
.wmv (ironic, isn't it?)

I have been able to play the video in a .mpg format, but it has two issues:

Audio doesn't play
The file is really big. It's 80 MB and I'd rather have it be no more than 30 MB. I'm okay with putting it in a zip to keep the size down, but that only gets it down to 50 MB.

When I open the file on my Mac, it plays, audio and all.

This is what the QuickTime X movie inspector says about the file format:

MPEG-1 Video, 1,280 x 720
MPEG Layer 3, 48000 Hz, Stereo (L R)

I'd like an FFMPEG command that I can feed my video to and end up with an outputted file that will play on Windows 7, both audio and visual, without any dependencies on other codecs or applications. I'd like it if it also played on fresh installs of Windows XP although I can live with it if it doesn't, and ideally I'd like it to also be within my size constraints.
