Default WMP(v9) w/98SE wont play AVI's

My brother-in-law is trying to play AVI files from his video camera but WMP(v9)
only plays audio from the files, no video. The AVI File type box is checked in
Tools, Option, File Types. Does 98 need some type of add-on codec to play AVI
video?

Thanks,

Bill

Install the codec that was supplied with the software that came with the
camera.
