Post subject:  Problem with Avi format in Windows Media Player

Well, thats it, i'm now on my new uber PC, but the thing that sucks is that it won't play avi files for some reason, whenever i run it through windows media player (i got the newest one), it just gives me a error with codec and then only plays the audio and no visuals. So, can anyone help me out? And i don't want to pay money, if DELL was able to get it working on my old one, i should be able to do it with this one.

Okay, here's a update. Turns out i only have Windows media player 9, so i'm getting 11 now, so hopefully that will fix it.

Another update, seems my new computer likes downloading at 14 kb a second, stupid thing.

Here's a third update. Seems some of the newer vids do play, very odd.

There are thousands of AVI codecs out there, might be a problem to gain compatibility with that in mind.

I suggest installing the K-Lite codec pack if you haven't already, it covers all the most common codecs.
