    Dvd player software

    Hi,

    Does anyone know of any good DVD player software that works with Vista 64bit,



    I have tried Power DVd 6 but that keeps crashing even with the patch from Power DVd's web site. I have tired Windows Meida Player but that keeps crashing to, I have even tried another disk drive but the same thing happens.

    Thanks,

    Wizkid

    If they crash it could be due to lack of the proper codecs.

    Try installing Vista Codec Package Homepage (VCP) and also install the 64-bit components.

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply. Do I install the Vista Codec Pack and then installed the component pack as well?


    Thanks,

    Hi,

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have installed these when I installed the first one Kasperksy dected a confick with the programs and said that it removed. The program said that it installed correctly still. The 64 bit software installed ok as well. Do I need to worry about the confick that Kaspersky picked up or not?

    Regards

    If your getting sound and vision then you should be okay.

    Can you remember what the conflict was? It may have just been a particular codec that was flagged.
