Troubleshooting suggestions appreciated.
Hardware components:
ABIT IC7-MAX3 motherboard w/Intel P4 3.0GHz cpu and 2.0Gb of PC3200DDR
memory
ATI Radeon 9600 Pro w/128Mb of memory (digital and analog outputs)
Samsung SyncMaster 191T LCD monitor (digital and analog inputs)
Creative Audigy2 platinum sound card
Creative Dxr3 Decoder Card and DVD 6x drive
Software conponents:
Windows XP Pro w/SP1 and all other updates/patches/etc.
Windows Media Player 9 with all updates and capable of selecting DVDs for
playback
RealPlayer 10
ATI DVD Player p/o MMC 8.9 (Catalyst 4.3 drivers installed)
Creative DVD player (XP drivers are installed for Dxr3 decoder card)
Monitor is connetced to video card using both inputs connections.
Tried to play DVD movie and, with digital input selected to monitor, found
none of the various DVD players
would display anything. Switched monitor input to analog and found that only
the Creative DVD player would
display movie. (Analog input to monitor was connected to Dxr3 decoder card;
Dxr3 was connected to Radeon.) (Yes, all other DVD players were tried, with
no success.)
Did a Google search for DVD Players and downloaded six that had various
trial limitations.
ALL six were able to successfully dislay the movie with the monitor
connected to the Radeon via the digital
(DVI) connector.
Anyone have a clue as to why Windows Media Player, RealPlayer10, and the ATI
DVD player won't play DVD
movie at all (analog or digital) and the downloaded programs are successful?
Something does not compute!!!
