My windows media player won't play some avi files.

Reply: (edit)AVI files aren't simply one type of codec, there are dozens of different codecs used for AVI files. Go here and get GSpot. It will tell you which codec the AVI file is using. Then you need to install that type of codec to view the file.

Reply: (edit)You may need DivX codecs installed
