i installed the xvid codec and still its green screen with sound playing, it does it with other movies as well, mostly the dvd rips. ok i installed 3ivx and the video is now showing, but its lagging unfortunately, im on a 400mhz computer, but a 450 plays dvd's flawlessly...still need help.

Hi, you need to make sure that the FDD show filter pack is disabled.
Try to find through your start/programs/fDDshow/configuration, or if you use zoomplayer, use player options/manual filters, click on FDDshow filter and click unregister.
This stops FDDshow filter from playing xvid files, which it has a tendency to play in green, to the proper xvid filter.
Hope this helps,
