Could you try a few things...

First try to use this version: 
http://www.videolan.org/pub/videolan/testing/vlc-win32-20020730.zip
If it still doesn't work, can you try to alternatively disable the audio 
(from a dos command box: vlc --noaudio) and the video (vlc --novideo). It 
should pinpoint the problem a little bit more precisely.
