Divx and other players will only play a quarter of a couple avi files i have?

i have two avi video files that are a little over 200mb each, and both of them will only play about 10 minutes until they stop playing, i know the files arent damaged because i found the same videos but different files, and it does it with those files too. is there a speacial codec i need? i have the latest divx and xvid installed.
