Maybe it doesn't like nVidia chips.

Did you pay for the copy or did it come with your computer when you bought it. I think I remeber e-mailing em once and if you didnt provide the info of your copy like a Key or something they ignored you. Anyways... have you tried re-installing it? The one time that I ever got a crazy error a resintall fixed it.

Try vlc instead -> www.videolan.org

If that works, there's something wrong with your powerdvd installation.

Hi,
Don't know if you ever fixed this problem, but I've just had the same thing start happening to me,

After trawling the web I think I've found the answer. It seems to be a problem with the FX5600 chipset, in that the video acceleration is not compatible with older versions of PowerDVD.
