To start a new thread, go to the newsgroup you wish to post to and press the New
Post on the Toolbar of Windows Mail.

Do you mean that when you play an AVI file, all you get is audio and no picture?

That is probably caused by a missing codec. I would guess DivX. You can
download a free program called GSpot which will analyze the file for you and
tell you which codec you need.

ONLY download the codec from the manufacturer. Do NOT install so called codec
packs. If you need the DivX codec, go to divx.com and download the package. BUT
do a CUSTOM install and ONLY install the codec -- the rest of the package is not
fully Vista compatible.
