Noticed I can't play any DVDs. Commercial or home made.
PC does hard reboot right after DVD's play, within 3 seconds. Doesn't
matter if its Windows Media Player, Interactual, Intervideo playeretc. I do
have MMC 8.1 and know the DVD player won't work since it was upgraded from
MMC 7.7 but for life of me can't figure out why no other player will work
now. Was pretty happy for longest time.
Have latest Directx9upgrade from MS.

Not a drive problem, two different drives and both have same problem
I can play MPEG2 movied off hard drive.

Have 8500DV, P4 1.8, 512K, and about 40gb of free HD.

Any suggestions appreciated.
TIA
