    Have you installed the codecs?

    Vista Codec Pack - 32bit & 64bit Media Player Codecs

    Let me know the result...

    Cheers

    thanks, downloaded the codecs but still can't get a dvd to play, i've tried removing the player and did a search for new hardware changes, did a search for newer drivers, still nothing seems to help.
    thanks,
