I think your camera requires quicktime to play movies. Have a look at the software that came with the camera.

Do you have Quicktime installed?

Do they play with Quicktime?

If they do, you should be able to associate the files so they open with Quicktime

hold the shift key down and right click on one of them, select open with scroll to the program you want and put a check in Always use...

or open windows explorer click tools then folder options then file types and make the change there
