WMV Codec Installs... But Doesn't

This question was asked way back in 2006 and never answered.

I have several WMV files I downloaded from Microsoft for Visual Studio
training. When loaded in Windows Media Player 11, I get a notice to install a
new codec. Fine, I downloaded it, installed it successfully, but these WMV
files still do not run. WMP keeps asking for the same stupid codec regardless
of how many times I've installed it.

The codec is "Sipro Lab Telecom ACELP.net". I get a "media changing" message
in the lower left corner of WMP before it claims the codec needs to be
installed.

Any ideas on how to make WMP work or an alternate application that may work
better?

Thanks!
