Media Player Crashing with DVDs
My problem is that every time I try to play a dvd in windows media player it
crashes. Happens with every dvd I try and play. Plays for a few seconds then freezes. Windows error reporting service generates a report which I can provide if anyone knows about these reports. I have tried reinstalling windows media player but still does the same thing. I have media player 10. Jake -- "Today I saw a little worm Wriggling on his belly. Perhaps he'd like to come inside And see what's on the Telly." Spike Milligan |

Media Player Crashing with DVDs
The virtual cd drive cannot handle a disc or image greater than 2.2GB. It
is an implementation limitation. There is nothing wrong with your virtual machine or your dvd. The dvd just contains more data than the virtual drive can handle. It is not a virtual dvd drive, just a virtual cd drive that can handle very large cd's. -- Colin Barnhorst [MVP Windows - Virtual Machine] (Reply to the group only unless otherwise requested) "Jake" wrote in message ...

Ignore the above post. I sent it to the wrong thread. It was an answer to
a different poster on another issue. -- Colin Barnhorst [MVP Windows - Virtual Machine] (Reply to the group only unless otherwise requested) "Jake" wrote in message ...
