You need to open it with Adobe Camera RAW, and the problem is not within the camera, but within your PC/MAC software which you're using ;)

SOURCE: How can I use the Adobe Camera Raw plugin after installing Nikon Software?
During the installation of Nikon View or Picture Project, your system is checked for an installed copy of Adobe Photoshop. If a copy with the minimum version is found, Nikon View will install file format filters which will allow Photoshop to open a NEF/RAW file directly (there are other plugins for YCBCR TIFF format from supported cameras). If you have the Adobe Photoshop "Camera Raw" software installed (optional in Photoshop version 7, included in Photoshop version CS) the Nikon file filters will open the file. If you prefer to continue using the Adobe software, find and remove the following plugins: Nikon NEF Plugin (Nikon View) Nikon NEF Plugin LE (Picture Project) After a restart of Adobe Photoshop, the Adobe Photoshop "Camera Raw" plugin will handle the opening of Nikon NEF/RAW format files. Please note that there was an update for Adobe Camera Raw plugin for support of D70 and Coolpix 8700 RAW files, if you encounter difficulty opening raw files from any Nikon product after removal of the Nikon Plugins, please visit the Adobe support site to obtain the appropriate update for the Adobe Camera Raw plugin.

There is more Raw support and compatibility with newer versions of software from adobe, such as Photoshop CS3 or CS4. However, here is a website which may be of some help to you. http://www.dpreview.com/news/0712/07120601acr431.asp

I assume you're having troubles opening the pictures in Photoshop.
You need to open them using Adobe Camera RAW. A version of it was included with CS3, but since the D5000 is much newer than CS3, you will need to download an upgrade from Adobe.
