I got VFW111.EXE and ran it on my system. Now the Media Player in Windows won't run .avi files– it says: "MCIAVI requires a later version of MSVIDEO.DLL — Please Reinstall Your Video Software". (I thought VFW111.EXE would have installed a NEWER version of MSVIDEO.DLL!) Then when I clicked "OK" it said "There is a problem with the device driver — Check with the device manufacturer about obtaining a new driver". H E L P ! ! ! (Would that I had backed up my \windows\system directory before running this treacherous .exe file…!) Thanks, Leon Malinofsky

Leon, VFW11D.EXE – 1.1d – is the newest version to my knowledge. It should also bring along an enhanced Media Player to enable you to take advantage of the new formats and codecs.
