Re: dvd playback problem

Pete,

Yes, you can uninstall MP10 in add remove programs, remember to put a check
mark in the show updates box..

You also mentioned Sonic dla in another post, you need to update or upgrade
to a current version that supports MP10.. Uninstall the sonic app and see if
the cyberlink app works better with the patch, see below..
For burning, (my opinion) I would use Nero or Roxio software..
Review this link and see if it applies or can help..

Get the Nero infotool here..

Do you have this patch for Power DVD 4
http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/download/patches_1_ENU.html
If you don't want to have to upgrade your DVD combo drives viewing & burning
apps, then uninstalling MP10 and returning to MP9 may be the only way to go,
your call..

Ok Jay sorry , I just built my first computer. All I wanted to do is play a
dvd.
Now I am not shure if it was the updates or my dvd software. My drive was
going crazy media player was hanging I paniced and did a restore to before
the media player updates. I didnt think I could remove them . I then
removed dvd player and dvd codec application nothing was working right.
I have a lite-on sohw 812s dvdrw It came with Mydvd ver4 and Power dvd xp
4.0 The filmware was from lite-on. to increase media types
I kept getting autorun.exe freeze when i put in a cd. I removed mydvd and
now the cd works as long as I dont put in a cd-r
So I have no dvd software installed. I was wondering since i play 3d games
if i should reinstall my video driver and sound driver for eax etc. they
seem to work but I dont know if they restore properly. Is my software to old
or can i go back to media player 9.
I tried power dvd 6 trial which played but was conflicting with media
player. Nvidia codecs didnt work with mp 10 I hope this helps I could get a
new drive with software for 50 bucks? Thanks pete Jaymon"

Peter,

If the hotfix & DRM updates have caused problems, then just uninstall them
in add remove programs, make sure to check the box to view windows
updates..

It would help a great deal, if you could be more specific as to the make
and
model for your optical drive (or drives) you have installed, as well as
all
the viewing and or burning apps you have installed..? Also, you say you
did a
firmware update, where did you get it from..?, on what make and model
drive
did you install it on..?, remember, be specific..
It would also help for you to quit answering my questions with a question
and just give me an answer or feedback pertaining to the posed question,
if
you please..
It'll help me, to try to help steer you in the right direction..

rom
drive locking up on every disk with autrun errors and sonic dla. I need
to
fix this. Help .And no change with media player!!

Before I updated mylite on firmware but I did not reinstall sonic DLA

Thanks Peter

Peter,

Did you ever use the checkup utility to verify your decoders
compatibility
with MP10..?
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=de1491ac-0ab6-4990-943d-627e6ade9fcb&displaylang=en
Is this your card..?
http://www.evga.com/products/moreinfo.asp?pn=256-A8-N387-TX
http://www.evga.com/Support/Drivers/default.asp?switch=2
If so, did you connect the 4-pin molex power connector to the card..?

The DRM needs to be installed before the hotfix is installed..

Remember since SP2 and MP10 are major upgrades to XP, you may need to
update
or even upgrade older third party software to keep in step..
