    What in the hell is this all about? At the risk of sounding like an "anal-opening" . Apparently my laptop DVD drive doesn't play store bought DVD's (at least none ) newer than 3 years old. It plays older ones and things i've burned and sowtware and anything else i can put in there just not DVD's. And before anyone says the frickin words VLC forget it that isn't an answer either. I need to know how to get this stupid piece of crap to do what i paid good money for and that's WORK. I'm sorry if i come acrossd a bit peturbed. But i am ....Very. I had a brief message yesterday telling me it was a digital rights and my video card thing and to go to windows update, custom - something or other it didn't last long enough for me to be able to do it. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    might well be a codec problem.download the k-lite codec pack and give that a try.
