How do I install video for windows?

The Video for Windows technology was mostly replaced by the July 1996 release of its COM-based successor - ActiveMovie - as part of the OEM Service Release 2 of Windows 95. ActiveMovie was also released as a free download, either standalone or bundled with a version of Internet Explorer. One component that was not replaced with ActiveMovie was video capture, which still required an install of Video for Windows until the release of WDM capture drivers, which only started to become popular in 2000.
