Vista - Choppy DVD Playback

I have just got a Sony laptop preinstalled with Windows Vista Premium. I
tried to play a DVD Movie using Media Center and once the opening sequences
have passed on the DVD and I have selected to play the movie, the movie
begins very choppy for the first few seconds and then goes fine.

I then tried it on Windows Media Player 11 and it played choppy throughout
(every few seconds) although another time I played the DVD in WMP and it
played okay.

I also have another DVD player called "InterVideo WinDVD for Vaio" and that
plays DVDs fine without any issues.

Can anyone help? Thanks

Please provide info on Graphics card, (type of card) is the graphics Ram
memory integrated, or does it have it's own Ram?
