Unable to play DivX movies on Win XP

I need some help: I'm currently unable to play any DivX movie (encoded with 3.11 or 5.0) on a Win XP Pro system with a 5.02 codec. On the best case, the display is corrupted: I have attached four screen captured for you to see. I'm using BsPlay instead of Win Media Player but the result is even worse with this latest. Did I missed something ? Anyone can help ? TIA, Mr Psanter

Have you tried ffdshow? I'd also recommend removing anything Divx-related on your computer, including running regedit and removing any matches for "divx", and unregistering and deleting any remnant Divx filters or dlls in system32. Also, what if you uninstall Divx 5, and just install 3.11? Do the 3.11 movies with the 3.11 filter look the same? If they do, it doesn't sound like the Divx filter is the problem.

Ok, I have tried ffdshow (after uninstalling the divX codecs) but it doesn't make any difference. Uninstalling and reinstalling the DivX 5.02 codec didn't make any change either and finally I upgraded my display driver (RADEON 64 MB ddr VIVO) without any effect. One last point, I noticed that playback is now taking almost 100% of CPU time and it plays at a very slow motion rate. Do you suggest to reinstall Win XP or Win 98 SE ? Do I have any other (and less painful) option ?

have you tried the DivX Alpha Player? sometimes that will be the only player to play things correctly in WinXP. i know it's not the best solution, as you'd like to make the video player correctly in all players, but it could be a temporary solution for now.
