Unable to download an appropriate decompressor. (Error=80040200)

Cannot play back the video stream: no suitable decompressor could be found. (Error=80040255)

24030 2001-11-09 07:54:00 go to www.divx.com and download the latest DivX codecs and install them. This should allow you to play any .avi (and most other video) files. It should also have in it a program called the Playa which will play the files as well (but you can still use Media Player if you want). Hope this helps Guest (0)
