I was upgrading my Pc, new v-card, DVD-RW, memory and system was working sort of OK together but rebooting whenever it felt like it so I opted for a new M/B (Gigabyte) and CPU (pentium 4 640).
Went together so easy it was scary and everything was good (very fast & stable); CD games worked great until I tried to play the DVD (uses PowerDVD ver. 6 that came with Nero DVD). All hardware worked together on old M/B but with this, screen is soooooo slooooow, no DVD, it just hangs up. Says,"No disc in drive" but when drive is prompted, drive and title are listed. I have never tried to use WMP to play DVD's and would like to for a "test" but how do I switch defaults to try this? I sorta expect the same results, though. M/B has 915 chipset, could this possibly require an updated driver? BTW, was using XP pro on both systems.
Anyone got a handle on what the potential causes might be and what's the approaching on dealing with this problem?
