Playing AVI Files

[pile_driver_1000]

Someone please help me! I can't play the majority of the AVI files I download. I get the error message "WMPLAYER HAS CAUSED AN ERROR IN MSVFW32.DLL. WMPLAYER WILL NOW CLOSE." I don't know if this is related or not but I tried to play some other AVIs that I know work and it said something about "VIDS:CVID" & a "Decompressor". I don't know what to do & I am limited to only downloading MPEGs.

try looking here sounds like a damaged or missing dll

the other half of your question sounds like a codec issue to me google this >>>VIDS:CVID

hope this helps
