Question Need help with a certain codec

I've got a video of which I can't figure out the audio codecs. I usually have all necessary codecs' installed (K-Lite codec Pack, lame-3.96.1, TFM Audio Filter - Movie Soundtrack Compressor/Channels Effect FREEWARE ver. 1.0 beta 8 and DivX 5.0). When looking up the codecs with GSpot there aren't any displayed, though I can play the movie -without sound. Opening the movie in my Media Classic Player I get following message (which is for me, to be honest, like Chinese backwards ):

Media Player could not render some of the pins in the graph, you may not have the needed codecs of filter installed on your system

Stream 0

Media Type 0:
--------------------------
AM_MEDIA_TYPE:
majortype: MEDIATYPE_Audio {73647561-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}
subtype: Unknown GUID Name {00000075-0000-0010-8000-00AA00389B71}
formattype: FORMAT_WaveFormatEx {05589F81-C356-11CE-BF01-00AA0055595A}
bFixedSizeSamples: 1
bTemporalCompression: 0
lSampleSize: 128
cbFormat: 34

WAVEFORMATEX:
wFormatTag: 0x0075
nChannels: 1
nSamplesPerSec: 16000
nAvgBytesPerSec: 2000
nBlockAlign: 128
wBitsPerSample: 16
cbSize: 16 (extra bytes)

And when pushing the button that says 'search for codecs on the internet, I get following screen message:

Sorry, we couldn't find any codec with that guid in our database, the good news is that we will investigate your submission and probably add it later.

Could anyone tell me what codecs I need and maybe where I can get a hand on it?
Something about my system, in case that would be of interest to help me:

XP Pro SP2
1.024 GB Ram
2.53 GHz Celron
Media Players installed:
Windows Media Player 10
Real Player 6.0.12.1235
Jet Audio 6, 2, 6, 8330
Quick Time Player 6.5.2
Media Player Classic 6, 4, 8, 4
WinAmp 5.0.0.8
VLC 0.8.4.0

So, that seems to be all what I could tell you for now. Any idea??
Thanks in advance for any effort of yours
Cheers
Mario
