I formated my system and installed all programs and media players.

But when i try to play AVI files media player plays it as Audio file. I tried to run that file with other meadia Like Power DVD player. showing audio files. but before format and in other system that Avi file is playing properly.

I'm unable to guess what is the problem or what software is missing.

Someone help me.
Thanks in Advance.

If that is the case I've seen this before.

You need to grab one of the all-in-one avs codec packs and renew ALL your codecs.

Assuming the sound you are hearing is the correct sound - just with no picture!

Codecs are like dialect translators for media files.

Many video formats have many variations.
Different types of compression etc. In order to play back the file you need to have a codec(translator) that uses the same method as was used to encode the file.
