WMP plays video without audio, VLC plays choppy audio and video as does Nero Showtime. However, CD's, MP3 and all digital media including video play perfectly.
Now my drive was set to region 2 and all my DVD's are region 4, so in goes eragorn and set drive to region 4? yes, brilliant away it goes. Now a few weeks later i put in T3: Rise Of The Machines and my DVD looks like it has been in the blender, a few more DVD's go past and after checking with the Xbox 360 (worked) it is determined that something has gone bonk.
I have spent a few hours now googling and trying out the various suggestions, i have done the following;
Reset DVD Region To 2 - Chopped Region 2 DVD's
Reset To Region 4 - Nope
Uninstall DIVX Pack
Uninstall K-Lite Codec Pack Mega
Install Newest K Lite Codec Pack Full
Update Drivers Sound Card, Graphics Card - Latest
Check DirectX Version - Latest
Defrag Harddrives
Run Memory Checks
Run Error Checks
Run Anti Virus Scans
Bang Head Off Desk Repeatedly
Swear Colorfully Enough To Guarantee Rapid Transit To Hell
Now thats this is all done, here are the specs (That are needed)
Asus 9600GT Series Graphics Card
Asus P5E-V HDMI Motherboard (Onboard Sound)
4gb Corsair Bonded Ram
Intel 3.0Ghz Core 2 Duo Processor
Atapi DVD A DH20A3P Optical Drive (Firmware Version XP5Z)
Now my PC is in a Antec 1200 Gaming case, so it has so many fans it stays cool, so overheat damage is ruledout. DVD Drive burns perfectly, and plays CD's.
If someone can take the time out to help me here, because i have exausted my knowledge and skills in this task!
PS Im going on a 4 day trip on monday, i will review thread before monday and after thursday evening.
Thanks for all your time so far and hopefully int the future!
Chris
