Gold Member Username: RideredderCornell, IL USA Post Number: 1512 Registered: Sep-05 | My computer won't play DVD's anymore. When I put a DVD in the drive I get this message, "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because a compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer." Is there anything I can download to fix this problem? |

Try installing an updated driver for your video card." |
