Vista - Video's

Can someone explain to me why videos from my camera will only be shown as
still photos.

1. I used to be able to download videos and they worked from the same camera.
2. No error message to say what the problem is or what to do.
3. When I check the photo properties they show as 54.mb - video size.
4. When I double click to play, Windows media player only shows graphics,
the same as when a song is being played.

Please advise.

What file type are those files? It sounds like the respective codec is
missing...
