Hello, I come across an IT problem, can anyone help me? I can't view .divx files properly with my PC. Though I've updated the media classic player (version 6.4.9.1), doesn't help much. Can anyone tell me what player you're using to watch .divx files, or tell me what I can do? Thanks a lot!
Have you tried Going in here? http://www.divx.com/ Has the codec, Player, Converter and Webplayer. _________________

It's not a problem of player, it's a problem of codec (codec = COder/DECoder driver).
Basically .divx is the same as .avi so you may rename your file into .avi and see if it works.
Then if it still doesn't work, if u have intalled that K Lite codec pack I told u to install long time ago, you can config your codecs by using windows' START button /K Lite codec pack/ configuration / ffdshow/ Video codec configuration. A chart will appear. Check if a codec is assigned to DivX 4/5/6 , I mean check if it's written "disabled" in the codec column. If so, choose one of the available codecs by clicking on the the "disabled" word (a scroll will appear). Or try changing codecs.
If it sill doesn't work, you may download new codecs, or reinstall K Lite mega codec pack and carefully tick the correct boxes to select DivX codecs during installation.
I do not recomend to use VLC player, it can read everything but the Video and Audio quality is ugly.
Hmmm media player classic does have its own basic Avi codec, you may use it in case of need. Go -> Options/Internal filters and tick avi to use media player classic integrated codec. Don't forget to untick this box if u wanna use another codec, such as those ffdshow codecs I talked about above.
Gohan-kun, candyman and kawaii-san, thanks a lot for your nice advice. I've tried all your suggestions but still don't work. One of my friends said that my PC may be too old to watch these high qualtiy movies. Anyway, I'll try K-lite mega codec later as the last resort. If it fails too, I think I should start to save money to upgrade my PC
Anyway, sincerely thanks to you three for nice suggestion and detailed guidance. I've learned some valuable IT knowledge.

It's been raining here for almost 2 days, and still hasn't stopped. A soft rain. With morning's dew ... and fresh haze at night... I'm sure Aya-chan would love it. Be that as it may, I'm enjoying it that's for sure . My sleep is so peaceful when rain falls ...
This "Rainy" impression is intended to you, Aya-chan ... and also to everyone who's interedted in Rain. That's what I wanted to share with you guys.

Thanks for the info Orion, jinzoaya. I'll keep an eye for english subbed Abarenbo Mama.
IMO ram is not the main problem, more likely you laptop is lacking processing power.
Well you do need more ram to run windows if you were have to upgrade it. My other comp is an old Athlon XP 1800 1.5 Ghz with 1 GB Ram Windows XP pro .. so I guess it meets the Minimum Requirements. _________________

@Candyman and boris-san, thanks a lot for your advice
Though I don't understand 100% about the system requirement I've copied it and am going to show to the shopkeeper if I upgrade my laptop. It's a good reference to me
btw, one more new clip from aya: Mentreg G (21 Oct 2007). It's really funny. Let's enjoy.
