W98se Media Player 7.1

I have been sent an avi file which plays in audio only. When I run it media player attempts to download a codec without success. I have tried various cookie settings but this seems to have no effect. I have also downloaded the latest codec set from the microsoft site. The codec seems to be VIDS:div4 - can anyone suggest a source for this and tell me how/where to instal it

Hi there,

you could do alot worse than get the codec pack here http://w1.131.telia.com/~u13112030/Nimo50Build8.zip which contains a lot of differing codecs and should contain the one you are looking for :)

Hope this helps!

Innit marvellous. Spent the best part of two days trying to solve this one. Quick query on pprune and the answer is there within fifteen minutes.

Thanks Niteflite
