when im trying to play AVI video files in windows media player, all i get is the audio with a black background. when the player starts it says error downloading codec, the name of the video has a red exclamation mark next to it in the now playing list, i right click on it go on error details, then go on web help. when i get there it says this:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Windows Media Player Error Message Help

You've encountered an error message C00D10D1 while using Windows Media Player. The following information might help you troubleshoot the issue.

codec is missing
Windows Media Player cannot play the file (or cannot play either the audio or video portion of the file) because the Intel ITU H.264 (H264) codec is not installed on your computer.

The missing codec might be available to download from the Internet. To search for the Intel ITU H.264 (H264) codec, go to the WMPlugins.com Web site.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
i downloaded what it said and it did nothing, i googled it and got nothing. please help me.

btw, im running windows media player 10, with windows xp home edition sp2, all the latest updates have been installed from windows update.
