I downloaded an AVI file, but when I try to play the video, WMP only plays the audio, no video.

Anyone know why?

BTW, my computer is in Korean, and if you have not already figures out, I know very little about computers, so if you have a suggestion, please make it as idiot proof as possible.

Thanking you in advance

Try playing the file with VLC (http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ ).

Download WinRAR. Extract the files through that and they should play fine.
