This CODECS list are recommended to use with AVI2ISO to give you the best sync, and results

To clean up the system
ONLY, AND ONLY FOR WINDOWS XP
---------------------------------------------------
1) start the system in Safe Mode
2) remove all installed codec packs you have, control panel : add/remove programs
3) use o Codec_Sniper, and remove all, and I mean literally everything in the list
