    Hi Harley_1

    Use the check APSI file to confirm that all the aspi drivers are of the same version.

    Can you give more details of the movies and games not playing

    I hope this helps

    Alright mate, right ive checked the aspi and its come up wi the following -

    ASPI32.SYS 4.71.2
    WOWPOST.EXE 4.6 (1021)
    WINASPI.DLL 4.6 (1021)
    WNASPI32.DLL 4.71.2

    The games I was playing that keep asking for a legit disk when theres already one in the drive were Obscure, Deus ex-invisible war, FarCry. Forgot to mention the thing works fine when a standard cdrom disk is in it. Works like a charm.

    Hi Harley_1

    I just googled the DVD error code in your last post. The search suggested three possible problems

    1 - How the Benq player is installed in the system. It should be the master on the secondary IDE port.

    2 - Try setting the transfer mode to PIO and reboot
    (Go into your device manager->IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. Right click on secondary and choose properties. Go to the advanced settings tab and choose PIO only for "transfer mode". I would ensure that your drive is connected to the secondary controller first.)

    3 - You have a Virus

    Let me know if any success

    Which motherboard is in your system ( make, model and chipset)

    Thanks
