Hi, i have windows media player 10 and i cant play avi videos, it comes up with Is there anything like a codec i need to download to be able to play them???
check this out, also WMP errors are detaied here Microsoft Windows Media Player - Troubleshooting Windows Media Player 10 Error Messages good luck!
I recall I had the same problem ages ago. Downloading these 2, fixed things for me (though I'm not sure which one did the trick!). Anyway, it's worth a try! Free-Codecs.com :: Download Cole2k Media Nero Audio Plugin Pack 1.5.3 Download XP Codec Pack 1.3.4 - XP Codec Pack is one of the most complete codec pack
The above tools should install the correct codecs, but its important to realise that AVI is not actually a codec, only a video/audio "package" format. The xVid/DivX codec is probably whats needed most of the time.
Thanks for the quick responses works now! And thanks for the added information greatly appreciated It was the second one BTW.
