DVD software no working under cat 3.2

MelonMob · Apr 5, 2003, 07:53 PM

Today i tried to play some of my dvd's. I have recently reinstalled my system and had no reinstalled my dvd software until today. First I installed windvd. When trying to play a dvd it gave me black window/screen, the sound was there but no picture. Tested a few variations of the settings but nothing seemed to work. Then i uninstalled windvd and installed power dvd, when i try to play dvd's whith power dvd i get a distorted picture. mosty containing green and red stripes. If i dont shut it down my system wil hang and on restart i get a message that my radeon 9700 was to blame. Anyone go any idea?

My system is
Abit nfs-7
Readeon 9700
AMD Atholon XP 1600+
Pioner DVD rom
1 GB of ram
and som hd's.

Everyting is running at stock speeds , no oc. And it used to work before i reistalled my machine. ( back then i was running cat 3.1 driver)

You're missing some pieces.
The blank screen and the pink and green lines sounds like codecs aren't there and/or your DX9.0a should be checked.
