Anyone ever had that thing when you've played DVDs on your PC before (plenty times), but suddenly it decides to stop working.

Windows Media Playa decides that it cannot play this DVD because a problem occurred with digital copyright protection.

Grrrr, I can't watch my West Wing now. Sad

Is there not some other form of DVD playing software that might play it?

My Dell Media experience tosh crashes before I get near it.

I'm going to look for summit else. I'll google "DVD playing software" and see where I get.

I'm not a fan of that one either.
