Sounds like it corrupt, and theres nothing that can be done about that. Just download a new copy or buy.

you could try to load it into virtualdub and cut out the missing part of the file,I had to do that with the jap version of the ring as it would'nt play even though gspot said that i had multiple codecs that would play it.
Give it a go, what have you got to lose? only takes minutes to download unless you already have it.
its included in the programme called gordians knot which is a dvd to avi ripper prog.
