Usually your browser should report what codec is missing on your system when you try playing file that require it  and then offer you a download link to it.

You should read the webpage I attached.  There is a specific codec you need, and a few tweaks to do to play OOG audio files.

You may need a new/different CODEC.\nTry XP CODEC pack : http://www.xpcodecpack.com/\nThis CODEC pack is available for free.  You might want to try using a different downloader.  I use Utorrent and BitTorrent, both work really well.

When that happens you can click on the file that did not play, right click and get more details. This will bring you to a website where you will find information of how to get that codec you need. If you cannot find it, just use the sources provided:

It's just a matter of installing the right codec. That would do the trick.\n\nSample of codec-> http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/

Try the XP codec pack from the site below.\n\nAlso try using another media player, like Zoom, Media Player Classic is included with the codec pack.

There is a tool on the net called 'codec sniper' (see link) - I was having problems with my o/s at the time and coudn't get it to run (my codec problem cleared at the same time).\n\nI am told that it will do what you need.\n\nEnjoy

I would suggest downloading and installing the k-lite codec pack. http://www.free-codecs.com/K_Lite_Codec_Pack_download.htm It contains nearly every codec, if not actually every one. Since getting it I have not run into a single audio or video file I couldn't play.

You need to find out what kind of sound card you have, then download the latest drivers. You most probably will have to open up the computer and look at the sound card. It will either be part of the motherboard, or its own card. But somewhere on it it should say a model or manufacturer.

Depends on the clip you are attempting to play.  It may have no image.\n\nYou may also need to download the correct codec.\n\nHope this helps!

Try this: get a codec.\n\nAn example is the Divx codec.

You could try updating it to the new version. It could be from an incompatibility with the codec pack installed on the computer.
