DVD Player Inoperative After SP2 Install

[GenericmanToo]

Recently upgraded to XP Pro. Broke several items including DVD player for
old Cinemaster C-3.0 DVD card and SBLive! and Creative Disk Detector. Got
everything working via updates to viewer and drivers. Installed SP2. DVD
player (v1.9 from Cifelli site) displays "Current Display Mode Not Suitable
for DVD Video" [blank screen in Media Player v9--and now v10, too!]. I have
tried all possible settings with no difference in error message. Why would
SP2 make any difference? Did it overwrite a driver during "driver update?"
Advice greatly appreciated. [Dell Dimension XPS T500/Diamond Viper 770

Again, Had everything working with XP before SP2!

feedback. More suggestions, please.
