Have you installed all required codecs?

 

[xx97tibbyxx]

Wouldnt it show up that a new codec is needed to be installed?

If not,where do i get them?

The issue is unlikely to be codec related, the symptom of a missing codec is usually no video at all - if it's playing but in black and white, I would guess it's a problem with the graphics card driver. Have a look in the graphics control panel, if you can see no problem there, try uninstalling/reinstalling the graphics card driver, and perhaps try an older version.

For the record, a program such as AVI Codec can quickly determine any playback problems that are codec related.
