avi Video in PowerPoint

I have inserted a Microsoft media clip as an object on a
slide but the player will not open the avi file that I
direct it to during the slide show. An error message
appears stating the 'vids: dvsd' decompressor cannot be
found. Sounds like a codec.

The avi files will open through MS Media Player (ver 8.0
and 9.0) but not the player built into PowerPoint (ver
5.1). Is there a way to update the internal PowerPoint
player?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
