Can't Get a DVD to play on the PC - Using Media Player Classic?

Asked by Unexpected_Rain (357points) December 18th, 2009

Hello!

I’m having problems getting a DVD to play on a friends PC, we’re using media player classic and get a huge error message when trying to play any DVD.

This is the first part of the Error message:

We’ve tried playing them in a couple of other players too but they all tend to crash as soon as they try to run the DVD. Media player Classic is the only one giving us any information on why its not working.

Any ideas on how to get them working would be awesome!
