I have Vista Home prem and I cant play my AVI files. I know I need DivX MPEG-4 (DX50) cause my windows media player tells me I need that codex but I can't seem to find a safe site that I could download it from and also a site that doesnt give spyware with it. Will this codex work with vista? Also can someone give me a link to where to download it from?

Hi,

If they worked last night I would make sure I re-installed them just in case your family did do a system restore. Also if multiple account users are on that pc be sure you have administrative rights when installing the codec pack or vista will not let you install/ use them as vista is user 'sensitive'.
