The DVD menu preview doesn't work, any idea's?

Using VS 11.5 Plus.

Thanks,
Marty.

It has become almost a mantra with me over the past couple of months to suggest people first go to the Microsoft DirectX website and download the latest update patch. The current one is dated March 2008 and can be found at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en
Note that it updates both DirectX 9.0c (XP) and 10 (Vista). The number of your DirectX installation will not change, but the patch gives extra functionality in a number of areas and corrects other faults in VS11 in particular which do appear linked to Windows updates. The menu preview and 'building preview graph' problems seem to be amongst them.

I tried to do that, and was hit with the good old 'validation tool' screen. I downloaded the file suggested (6 minutes over dial-up) and ran the programme. "This version is no longer supported - please download the current version".

Don't you just *love* Microsoft?
