Default low memory when trying to play dvd's

How much memory do you hae allocated to the swap area(Virtual Memory)?

I have exactly the same problem also. Media Center does nothing, and WMP
gives the low memory error and lists chapters but nothing else.

I have installed WinDVD and get no video or audio.
I have installed PowerDVD and get no video or audio.

If I wanted problems like that, I'd use linux!

I recently developed a problem with trying to play dvd's using either
Media
Player or Media Center in Vista beta 2. If I try to play them with Media
Player, I get a "low memory" error. If I try it in Media Center, it does
nothing at all. 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. Any one have any ideas?
in case it helps:
Pentium Extreme Edition 840
2GB RAM
BFG GeForce 7900GTX-OC 512MB PCI-Express
