My new computer, it is very shiny. But I've hit two major, major snags. First know that I have now installed XP (from a licenced MS OS disk) and that the first problem existed in both Vista and XP but the second is a "since the reinstall" problem.

Snag the first: BAHLEETED - [livejournal.com profile] doccy fixed! Yay!

Snag the second: BAHLEETED - [livejournal.com profile] doccy fixed! Yay!

Otherwise, I am very happy with the new box. I watched two tv shows and some YouTube videos yesterday and it didn't crash once! \o/ Joy to the mousey :)

Haven't come across that before, and there's next to no support info on the web for DVD43. You could try the latest version (4.4.1 http://www.dvd43.com/). Or reinstalling the version you have.
I thought DVD43 had been abandoned by the developer, but the website says there was an update in 2009. I think DVD43 may have been bought by Slysoft - they do DVD copying software. (AnyDVD)
I've seen some good reviews of DVDFab, but that doesn't decrypt on-the-fly. You have to decode it to HDD and then play the film from there.

*looks* Yeh, that's the version I downloaded yesterday. I'll re-install it and, if that doesn't work, see if I can rip the older version off my old hard drive and use that. And if that doesn't work, I'll just have to get very quick with the mouse :D Cheers!

Well after uninstalling and reinstalling realplayer, K-Lite Codec Pack and DVD43 several times, I've apparently fixed the problem. Nooooo idea what I did differently but hey, it's working now! :)
