Ok here's the problem:

I had to format my pc. But the next time i installed Video Factory 2.0 i could not import avi (DIVX) files. I installed nimo codec pack 8 and i managed to import them but the program would refuse to preview the video and would play only sound :( Also after the format i could not import mpeg files while before the format i was able to do that...

Any sollutions? Plz help!

I don't like the Nimo codec pack. The legality of the pack is questionable and it frequently installs old, hacked, unstable or simply unneeded codecs.

In this case, I believe Nimo ships with DivX 5.02. Unfortunately, Video Factory won't work with anything older than 5.03. So go to DivX.com and download the latest codec there (unless you have an old processor like an AMD K6 which won't work with the new version.)
