low memory when trying to play dvd's
yes, that's the one - should I be using a different one?

I must admit it has been a couple of weeks since the last time I tried to play a dvd, but up until today, I had no problems playing them. I tried restoring to a point a few weeks ago, no help. I tried reinstalling a fresh copy of Vista, still nothing. I can play videos, music, etc. with either one, I just cant play dvd's.

low memory when trying to play dvd's
For whatever reason, fresh install of Vista RC1, everything is good to go.
DVD played with no problem in Media Player, havent tried Media Center yet though. "CassMori" wrote: I also have this problem.

playback expired around Sep 1st for Vista Beta 2.

Codecs in the final release would not have such an expiry.
