What's the error PowerDVD comes up with? I've been using PowerDVD since V3 (I am currently watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer using V6), and I have never had any problems with it, unless the drive is malfunctioning or the disk is dirty.

In fact, IIRC, if the drive was manufactured after January 2000, then the chances are the drive's onboard software decrypts the dvd, and not PowerDVD.
