Windvd

[thunderwalker]

I have an Hp 9800 with an 1.1 Ghz anthlon
it has an pioneer 116dvd 12xmax.
windvd will plat music cd's, but when I
put in a movie My machine locks up and I can't do anything,and I have to shut it down at the power source.
How can I fix this problem?

If applicable,
Install any updates required for WinDVD.
Configure your system so that the DVD drive is jumpered as Master and see if that helps any.

Speaking of WinDVD updates, there's a 2.8.22.1 patch at InterVideo's Taiwan FTP site, which isn't available on the US site. Might be worth a shot.

What version of WinDVD have you got, I've never had any problems before. Are the settings ok? Try disabling some of the Hardware features in the Video options.

AMD Athlon 1.2@1.44 (272MHz FSB)
Abit KT7a RAID
DiamondMax Plus 60 - 40Gb 7200rpm
