AVI isn't a video format, it's a file format.  The video content depends on which codec (COder / DECoder) is used to create it - in your case I'm guessing it's some form of MPEG-4, a format that older versions of Vegas struggled with.   You could

look on the Vegas support forum or you could try converting the video to DV AVI using Prism or Kate's Video Converter.
