Hi guys,
I have two DVDs which are no longer being recognised by my Dell Inspiron
5100 laptop. When I insert either of the Discs, the light on the DVD player
flashes for a few seconds and then stops. In Windows Explorer it tells me
there is nothing currently in the drive, and If I go into a DVD Program (I've
tried both Intervideo WinDVD and PowerDVD) it tells me there is no DVD in the
DVD drive. I think this is a Windows problem, and not a Hardware
problem/third party software problem because Other DVDs (of the same and
different region and PAL type) still work on my system, It's just two which
have stopped working. I have DVDIdle Pro V.505 installed on my computer as I
have run out of region changes and it is set to a different region than this
DVD. I'm running WindowsXP Service Pack 2. I cant think of any software that
I have installed since the Discs have stopped working (They werent working
even before I installed SP2). Any help would be appreciated because I have
nowhere else I can play these discs!!
Cheers,
Daniel
