I'm using Power DVD ver 4. Old as methusela but works fine for playback. My computer had a near death experience yesterday when I downloaded the free VLC player to try out. As soon as I popped in a dvd to play the computer went haywire and the blue screen of death popped up.
Scary, so I finally got it back to norm and uninstalled that crap.
I think I need a newer version of software because some dvd's that I have B&P'd for wont play using this old version. Every store bought dvd plays fine.
Considering the latest versions of Power dvd or Win DVD basic versions, I really don't need the deluxe versions with all of the bells and whistles that I wont use. What are you guy's using?
