    Well I was planning on ripping all my DVDs onto my hard drive so I can connect my computer to a tv to watch them...

    I use Alcohol 120% to create a virtual drive and load the DVD image in there. Well I'm trying to watch a movie but it won't play. If I try w/ windows media player it will crash if I choose anything after chapter 1.

    It worked Fine before!

    I dont quite understand how this could happen. Did the image just get corrupt? Is this going to happen a lot with my DVD images? Is there anything I can do to prevent this?

    I dont want to have to keep ripping my DVDs on here when the image breaks. That would be annoying. This could ruin my whole plan sad.gif


    Help!

    Edit - note that my other DVD images are still working fine

    Windows Media Player requires a DVD decoder to play--which you have to pay for (which is RETARDED)

    you need a new DVD player for your computer

    I suggest VLC (VideoLan Client player) which is free from www.videolan.org (click the "Get VLC" on the right)

    it will play your DVD's no problem.
