With which application are you capturing the video?

In which application are you trying to view the video?

A DV-AVI file does not need codecs other than those already included in XP.

Try using Window Movie Maker to capture the DV-AVI and see if that works.
Just to check, only capture a short sample.... like 5 minutes or so.

Let us know what happens.

Have you installed anything else just before it went wrong? I'm thinking
codec packs or apps which play compressed videos for teh net like divX, all
of which can cause mayhem and if so it may be best to use system restore and
get to a point before installing them and try again.
