Hey guys, recently began having an issue.
First, the hardware...
Nvidia Geforce 6800GT, looks like I'm running the 6631 drivers.
Lite-on LTD-122 DVDROM, bought it YEARS ago labeled as another brand
The first peculiar problem is that although I show my region for the drive in Device Manager as being set to Region 1 with 0 changes remaining, Windows Media Player, when asked to play back a DVD disc, tells me that no region is set and I need to go set it. Strange.
So instead I try my luck with Power DVD, I think im using build 5.603. The DVD will play, I can usually hear the audio, and heres the weird part...the picture KIND OF displays, but most of it is overlayed with black. I can see like 1/4" along the SIDES of the picture, but the rest is just blocked.
I had ffdshow installed (for what reason, I cant remember), so uninstalled that...uninstalled and cleared out PowerDVD files and reinstalled, installed Nvidia DVD Decoder (not sure what thatd do...)... any ideas?
Thanks, you guys are the best
