I think Divx is good for playing .avi files. Download a copy of that. As for .mpg files, I'm not sure.

Did you perhaps install a codec pack recently? It sounds like perhaps it is a missing or corrupted codec problem. I suggest reinstalling WMP11.

If that fails, then try using system restore to go back to a restore point before you had this error.
