Can't get Vegas Pro 12 to play videos encoded with DivX Codec?

Some users are in trouble using DivX codec in Sony Vegas, this article will show you the solution to open DivX to Sony Vegas for editing using a DivX Converter. 

As a Windows based audio video editing program, it stands to reason that Sony Vegas should import, open and play AVI (a common video format under Windows). However, various issues occur when importing, such as vegas pro 10 and Divx issue: 
 

Q1: After upgrading to Vegas Pro 10.0a 64-bit, I can no longer open in the timeline or trimmer any file encoded with the DivX codec. Further, I can no longer customize an .avi render to use the DivX codec. I upgraded the DivX Pro codec to 6.9.2, as part of the DivX Pro 8 bundle. That was no help. 

Is there some "registration" of the codecs that must be accomplished before Vegas Pro 10.0a will recognize and use them? 

Q2: I have over 200 AVI files that I want to edit them with Vegas 10, most are divx. However, I can't even import divx files into Vegas! Only the audio content is shown in the timeline. Then I tried Virtualdub and that didn't work either please help.
