    DVD player (Power DVD/Cyberlink) won't play DVD

    After playing an audio CD, I put in a DVD and tried to play it.  I get "a disc with an unsupported format in drive /:)  What do I need to do to get it to play normally?  Thanks!

    Is it the standard DVD disc, movie format and player you use or the blu-ray disc?

    Did you put it in the correct drive?  According to the manufacturer's website, that unit shipped with a CDROM drive and a DVD ROM drive, for some reason:

      Hello!  I put it in the correct drive.  I uninstalled a program I had installed earlier in the day and it seems to have solved my problem.  Thanks for the help!
