I find myself downloading a different codec for nearly every AVI file I try to view. Windows Media Player is useless when it comes to giving a meaningful error message. RealPlayer usually tells me exactly what codec I need for the file I'm trying to play. Then I simply google up the codec name, download it, install it, and I'm viewing my file in a matter of minutes. So my advice is: if you can't figure out what codec you need, try opening the file in RealPlayer.
Note that once you download a codec for a given media player, it typically will work with all of your other media players as well.
