some scripts work, others don't

[ray3d]

After installing Avisynth, I am able to get some scripts to work, while others produce error codes. For example:
avisource("H:\DV capture\CD short.avi")addborders
(50,50,50,50)flipvertical()
saved as "test.avs"
(Suggested by a friend), does what it should.

However:
Version()
saved as "version.avs",
producs the error code:
Script error: syntax error
(C:\(path)\version.avs, line 1,
column 1)

I test these scripts by dragging and dropping them on Windows Media Player version 9.

I have several other recommended scripts which produce similar error codes.

I don't know how to debug these scripts based upon the error codes.

hmmm...
are you sure that you have only one version of avisynth installed?!

uninstalling avisynth and reinstalling it wouldn't hurt generally :)

anyway, it could also be a filter which is causing some problems in your plugin directory (even if it is not used in a specific script) - so perhaps you'll want to post a list of filters (apart from standard filters as decomb, mpeg2dec3 etc)

Avisynth was installed once after a clean install of my OS, (Win 2K), so I'm sure that it is the only version on my system. As for filters, I have not added anything beyond the basic install. Is there a way to double check that I have only what I think I have?
