I have this AVI File that's crashing my windows explorer. Every time I go to the directory that has the file in it, my explorer restarts. I have to do something with the file for this to happen. The file plays okay in windows wants I get it started. Can any one shed some light on what may be causing this.
I am assuming you're running XP Too many codec packages installed so they were conflicting with each other... unistall FF-Show codec package and use to DivX package and it may work. Google DivX521XP2K.exe and install. If the DivX521XP2K.exe was unsuccessful then we'll try the regedit: However if you still have problem then “Windows XP Explorer has a feature: Simply do the following steps: 1) Open a command window (Start->Run, type in 'cmd' hit enter) 2) To remove image preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 /u shimgvw.dll 3) To readd image preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 shimgvw.dll 4) To remove media preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll 5) To readd media preview, type and hit enter regsvr32 shmedia.dll http://support.microsoft.com/kb/555654
