You have DirectShow support which can load video.  Make sure the Aero/Metro/etc is turned off and you have the 'Standard Desktop' only.

DirectShow is far better on Windows than Quicktime too.

I will try in the evening in the class computers but at home I have a
clean windows 7 install in an old machine. I tried there but does not
play the video you sent. In the PD console I get this

filmQT: Could not initialize quicktime: error -2093
