Maybe. It wouldn't hurt to update to the newest version.

Perhaps it is a false file, or not completed correctly by the software that made it. Where are you downloading these files from?

If it's a corrupt DivX file you can fix it with DivFix. Also try different players such as realplayer or divxplayer.

Make sure you get the Nimo Codec Pack. If you install all of those codec's and you still can't play it, it's probly a bad .avi file.
