What you need is the correct codecs for your player or you can just download the VLC player as it has all the codecs installed already...
This thread will show you links for the codecs and the VLC player...

Yep it is very good...Get that one and use it as your default player, but also get the codecs for WMP as VLC will not preview a movie whilst it is still downloading...

It still won't play it if wmp is not armed with the appropriate codecs. I think that's the issue.
