It sounds more like that you have not completed the download (I seem to remember that videoLAN is more forgiving than other players when dealing with incomplete files). Try downloaing the torrent again and check it really does say "Download Suceeded!". Otherwise it's most likely a codec problem.

Since this question is asked so many times, this is a standard reply cut and pasted
9 timeout of 10, this is a codec problem. Very easy to fix.
i) Download
ffdshow 2004-07-25
ii) Remove
all previously installed codecs you have, and I mean
all.
iii) Install ffdshow.
Just in case it wasn't clear, uninstall
all previously installed codecs, they only clash and interfere with each other. You only need ffdshow.
If you don't like the idea of removing all your old codecs, then don't, you may be able to resolve the problem by just updating or installing to the latest ffdshow codec (but the general consensus is to just have the one codec installed, there will be less problems that way).
Look at the stickies in the
Playback Help forum to find the latest version of ffdshow (see this
thread).
Plus I would recommend downloading and using the latest version of Media Player Classic (
2000/XP or
98/Me build)
