I don't know. I use quicktime ver.  7.1.5(latest). Try looking here:   http://www.apple.com/quicktime/win.html

Ide like to jump in here if i can... I have a similar problem to this.  I am using ver 11.   Sometimes when i download video, the player will say it needs a codec and then plays the audio but not video.  This is frustrating because i cant find out what codec is required and, they seem to be in short demand for this player.   I wish divx had a vista version available because i use to rely wholeheartedly on the divx downlod.
