Earlier today, I downloaded a movie on Bit Torrent.

'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'

After extracting the Avi file from the RAR Archive, I keep getting this error whenever I...

- Open the folder the avi file is in
- Open the file in DivX

Here is the error I'm getting in case it may help you...

A "Dr. Watson post mortem debugger" error ("DrWatson Postmortem Debugger has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.") is also coming up when this file is opened.

Everyone else on the site I got it from, says it works fine for them. So why isn't it working on this computer? What could possibly be the problem here, and is there a solution?

This is really frustrating. I've downloaded this 1 GB + file twice already. I've tried extracting it to different folders, dragging it into different media players, and none of it worked.

Please help.

Thank you very much...
Later

What i would do is sit down and think for a while.
1. Windows has a special way of making you want to shoot someone
and
2. Windows is [bleep]

:tazz:

i hope this doesnt annoy you to much because you probably thought u were getting a serious reply.

p.s

Windows is sometimes confusing like that, try downloading another avi file that is in a RAR archive and see if you get the same error.
If not its probably that your computer dont like the file
If you do get same error maybe theres something wrong with your WinRAR.
