DVD Decoder
I have a Dimension 9100 Media Center. My system crashed a few weeks ago and I had to re-install my OS. Since then I get error meesages when I try to play a DVD in MC or Media Player. The messsage says the DVD decoder is either not installed or is malfunctioning. How can this be and how can I fix it?

Hi Sunlover,
Dell has been shipping PowerDVD as the DVD software for a few years now. Depending on when you purchased your system you may or may not have the disc. I would suggest you contact Dell and request all your discs.
For now though, click on the CD/RW link in my post and scroll to Section 7-5, article 15 and try the free VLC program. It works very well with Windows XP and many seems to like it.
Best Regards
God, grant me the senility to forget the people I never liked anyway,
the good fortune to run into the ones I do
and the eyesight to tell the difference.
