Try uninstall all of your codecs (see add remove programs entries) and install a good codec pack in the place... I suggest you to install the k-lite codec pack... It works fine with all the different video files I ever tried to run on my computer.

Try it. If the video you're trying to play is not corrupted, or if it does not uses a new codec that isn't present in the codeck-pack until now, it will works for you!
