none of that shit works... especially tht mplayer, it sucks. the movie is a .avi if that makes a difference. ive tried the divx, and k lite, and the mplayer, nothing is working

i just tried it again, and when i try to open ANY file (even ones that normaly work for me), it just says that it has had an error and does that thing in xp where it asks if you want to send an error report.
