SYMPTOMS
========
After you click an icon to start an Audio Video Interleave (.AVI) video, the
insertion point changes to an hourglass and then changes back to a cursor.
The .AVI file does not play, nor is there an error message displayed.
CAUSE
=====
The problem will occur if the entry "avi=AVIVideo" (without the quotation
marks), which is found in the [MCI Extensions] section of the WIN.INI file, is
missing or is spelled incorrectly.
RESOLUTION
==========
To correct this problem, verify that the line is entered correctly in the [MCI
Extensions] section of the WIN.INI file, as follows:
avi=AVIVideo
If this line is not in your WIN.INI file, add it.
For more information about how to accomplish this task in Windows, see your
Windows printed documentation or online help.
