Ok this is where you went wrong...Dont ever, and when I say ever I mean it dont ever burn CD's that you bought OUT of the US on an American computer, the format for every country is different. Your best bet would be to find a program online (I.E. Sound Studio, Rip and Track) and load the file into that and chop it up, thats all i can tell you.

You can try looking for it on amazon.com, E-Bay or half.com. \n\nHowever, you should note some DVDs can only be played in certain regions (i.e. Europe or Canada/USA or Asia). So you might be able to get a DVD of Chess but your DVD player might not be able to play it unless it is an all region DVD player.

You can take a soft paper towel and rub it in the CD or DVD and it might work

You need to install a DVD codec. Most DVD-ROMs include software to playback DVDs, but if yours doesn't, you can get VLC, found at http://www.videolan.org/vlc/\nThis is a great open source DVD/multimedia player, which can play DVDs without a codec. \nIf you want to play DVDs natively in Windows Media Player or other applications, you'll have to get a full-fledged DVD decoder, which costs money. The DVD corporations charge a licensing fee to use their decoder, so you have to pay. There really isn't one best decoder out there, but I've had good success with WinDVD and PowerDVD. Do a search for either and you should be able to find one that will work.

You will get a dialogue box appear if you stick in a DVD of the "wrong" region. It may well ask you if you want to change the region your DVD drive plays, and also tell you how many more times you can change the region code ( typically you can change region a total of 5 times ). There are, of course, a number of hacks to get around those number of changes limits, but being hacks you use them at your own risk...\n\nHey, multi-region DVD players cost around $30 ( so I hear ), go get one of those and wire it up to your TV..\n\n( And, well, I live in the UK, what DON'T you get released there? Sooner? And in a better version with more extras? )

Nothing that is 100% legal. There are some "multi-region" DVD players available but you probably don't want to buy a new player just to watch one DVD. There are also firmware hacks available for download for a very few DVD players. I have an older Apex player that has an available hack that makes it multiregion and defeats Microvision but of course, I haven't installed it because that would be illegal   ;-)\nDo a web search for "XXX firmware hack DVD" where "XXX" is the manufacturer of your player. Be Careful! Installing the wrong firmware update will turn your DVD player into a boat anchor!

It should accept it, you don't need to do anything.\n\ndoes this 99 min Cd has a VCD video format?\n\nIf not you can just open it and see what is the type of the movie.\n\nagain, the movie type is what depends on, not the CD size.\n\nXLMan

Sorry,\n\nBut according to web site TVSHOWSONDVD.COM.  That program is only available right now in other countries.  I suggest you watch this site for it coming to the USA.  This site is really up-to-date on what is being released on DVD...I'm hoping too for it to come out here!!!!

It's not the graphics card. It's the region settings. Try using VLC media player (which doesn't require the use of downloaded codecs) for free.\n\nIf that doesn't work, download AnyDVD. It will make your DVD's region free and removed all encryption.
