Today, the first time since Christmas I tried to watch a DVD but playback is very jumpy as well as sound breakup. I have tried playing varius DVD's and have also tried using media player all with the same results.

I havnt installed any new software that I am aware of except the latest XP updates.

Can anyone throw a light on this problem ?
