I have the Ice Age DVD and it won't playback in Media Center 9.1.274. When I click the DVD drive from my computer, I get the following error message.
The DVD disk can not be accessed.
Either your system is missing some components for playing DVD video, or another application is currently using those components.
(BTW, "DVD disk" even spelled properly, "DVD disc" is reduntant as "DVD" stands for "digital video disc. Also, "can not" should be one word, "cannot.")
I get this after freshly restarting my computer and not launching any other programs.
It works on my notebook computer, but not my desktop.
Ideas?
I'll post my system specs after dinner. :)

Is it just this particular DVD, or do you also have the problem with others?

Now that is interesting. I tried several DVDs, and all worked fine. I tried Ice Age again, and it worked fine as well. Very weird. So I guess my problem is "fixed." Just in case anything has changed, below is my latest system information.
