FFDShow-alpha (recommended because it can’t possibly permanently mess up anything):
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=53761&package_id=59355
It must also be configured to playback WMV1/7 and WMV2/8 (XP) - Start>All Programs>ffdshow>Configuration>Codecs and choose from the dropdown list (libavcodec = ON disabled = OFF)
Media Video 9 codecs (not needed it FFDShow works):
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/format/codecdownload.aspx
http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/2/e/72e9d6eb-3412-414b-b93f-85d851e01cfb/WM9Codecs.exe
For the WMV9 codecs to work, you just need to install it (double-click the pack/.exe and follow instructions etc).

If you want to encode some video to Microsoft MPEG-4 (WMV), you can use their Encoder. It’s free:

Microsoft’s Movie Maker can probably do it as well.
