Explorer need to restart when viewing folder with .avi files

Bill Maxwell

I have a collection of video files on a slave drive. Everytime I access the
folder with the .avi files explorer errors out (Windows Explorer has
encountered a problem and needs to close). The error signature info has
ModName: xvid.dll. Could there be something wrong with my codec? Or can
windows not handle the thumbnail view with .avi files?

install a different version of the codec. Seemed to solve it for me. Though
I cant remeber which one it was, sorry.
