Or you can use virtualdubmod to do it.
http://www.afterdawn.com/software/video_software/video_tools/virtualdubmod.cfm

Load the video in vdubmod and in the video menu, get into the Scan video streams for errors submenu and click on scan. If the video stream has errors itll tell you and then you have the choice of either masking them or deleting them.
Set the video to direct stream copy and save the AVI.

Another method is to use AVI fixed: http://www.divx-digest.com/software/avifix.html

Its a good idea to make a backup of the file before running it in the program, since avifixed can sometimes output corrupt videos.

Ok...i tried the first waay and it didnt work. Every time i would open the video in Vdub it said program not responding and closed. I also tried a program that i found called ASF-AVI-RM-WMV Repair. It did fix the video but it put the audio like 10 seconds ahead of the video...i'll try the other two...thanks
