No video (black screen) on playback with Corel WinDVD 9 Plus

Post by Alan Holzhausen »

I just installed the program (Corel WinDVD 9 Plus) and I get no video when playing a commercial DVD. I have Windows XP SP2, GeForce 7900 GS video card, set to 1280 by 1024 resolution and a core 2 duo micro. Audio works fine. I had this problem berfore with windows media player 11 and got the WinDVD hoping it would fix it.

Any help is appreciated.

If this same problem is affecting more than one program then it will either be a windows or a hardware issue.

Have you installed the latest version of direct X
Have you installed the latest geforce 7900 gs driver

If so then work your way through
