CD/DVD drive problem

[Guest]

My dvd drive has suddenly stopped playing dvd's correctly. I just used it
the other day & it was fine. I tried to play several dvd's today & the dvd's
will play but the video moves very fast & choppy & the sound is all jumbled &
and sounds kind of like a bunch of clicks. I tried using different players &
different dvd's but they all play the dvd's the same way.

What Dvd Software Players are you using? Close down all Apps you have
running in the background.

I tried playing them in Divx, Window's Media Player & RealOne Player.. they
all played the dvd's the same way. I shut off all my apps & that didn't help
either.

Try PowerDvd or WinDvd. Do you know what CPU and Graphic Card you have in
your system?

I forgot to list PowerDvd.. i tried that too. My CPU is Intel Pentium 4 & my
graphic card is GeForce4 Mx 440 with GP8X. I also noticed today when i tried
to play a dvd again that the drive now makes a kind of loud humming noise
when i put the dvd in and try to play it also.
