apparently, vista rc1.5600 has problems using 3rd party divx software so
certain .avi files can be played in media player. i guess if you download
the divx software, it crashes explorer and also other programs you might use
to watch/listen to movies/music. i haven't tried using the media centre to
watch said movies (without divx)....but if anyone knows anything about this
issue, let me know..thank you...farooqhm@hotmail.com...ty so much

I installed xvid by koepie (together with ac3 filter and vsfilter) on my
Vista system and all went well. For playback of xvid/divx I use media player
classic, because I'm getting out of sync issues in WMP 11 (only in full
screen mode though).
