Joan - do you have the cd software for your copy of PDVD? You could try
reinstalling it, but you will need the licence key off the box to do
this -

| Thanks, Wendy.
|
| However, when I use the applications key it just says "Applications" and
| that's it. No arrowing, tabbing or anything else will get me anywhere.
On
| reading all the other messages in this thread, I think maybe that this
was
a
| free trial or something. It came with this Dell computer I have and I
don't
| know whether it was free or not. It may well be out of date now.
|
| Alternatively, this DVD I'm trying may be faulty.
|
| The third choice of course is an idiotic user! (smile).
|
| Thanks for all your help, folks.
|
| Do DVD's play with Windows Media Player? I might try uninstalling this
Power
| DVD and try that instead.
|
| Best wishes,
|
| Joan.

| >> Hi all,
| >>
| >> WMP 11, XP Home, Jaws 8
| >>
| >> I am attempting to play a DVD for the first time on my fairly newly
built
| >> PC.
| >>
| >> On putting in the DVD, I am given three options:
| >>
| >> Play using Windows Media Player,
| >> View folders, or something like this,
| >> Take no action.
| >>
| >> I enter on Windows Media Player, and a message pops up:
| >>
| >> "Windows Media Player cannot play DVD video. You might need to change
| >> your
| >> Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel and
then
| >> try lowering your screen resolution and colour quality settings".
| >>
| >> Both were at maximum, so I lowered them.
| >>
| >> I got the same message.
| >>
| >> My wife has a laptop, and using Windows Media Player, with her screen
| >> settings the same as mine, she is able to play DVd's.
| >>
| >> Two questions please:
| >>
| >> 1, Any ideas what I can do to cure this problem?
| >>
| >> 2, Is there a, if possible, free software DVD player that I can try,
and
| >> that would work?
| >>
| >> Any help would be appreciated.
| >>
| >> Thanks.
