Title: cannot run a dvd from my drives
Post by: ned1 on November 29, 2010, 08:42:43 AM

Hi all,
My problem is that I cannot run a dvd from my drives (all runs ok from a file, film and sound) I think this has happen before but cannot remember what I did to get out of it, may have been to do a restore point, if I did it's not working this time,

Thanks for any help

What happens when you put in a dvd? Does Windows see the drives?

Hi,

Have to go to “my computer” > play or run > windows media player opens and plays DVD  but no Sound, have tried other DVD’s  but still no sound.
If I play a Film from a file it opens in media player, plays with sound without any problems !!

hello!

have you tried updating your version of WMP or the Windows itself?
