Media Player v.11 HELP!!!!!!

My WMP was working fine. Now i can no longer play videos in .avi file. I can
hear the sound but instead of the picture....i see the plug in running. What
to do?!
Pls help, cheers

This sounds like a missing codec issue, and probably DivX.

You can download the DivX codec from divx.com.


IMPORTANT: When you install the DivX download, do a CUSTOM install and ONLY
install the CODEC. Other parts of the DivX download are not fully Vista
compatible.
