Back up question

[pyjamas]

I have Ant Bully and Monster House and my DVD writer cannot even read these now, says I do not have a disk in my drive, are they now putting something on that stops your writer from even reading the disk. This maybe answered somewhere else, but I am still getting around here. Any help?

You have an "autotrap" function

These DVDs have an autotrap function to prevent them from playing in your computer. The easiest way to rip these DVDs to your HD is to use RipIt4Me.

Now to watch these disks take a little doing. First you have to turn off any autoplay settings for the drive.

Click My Computer and right click the drive in question. Select properties and up will come an autoplay tab. Select all actions for DVDs to do nothing.



Now download Media Player Classic (get it here)

Now use this player to view your DVDs.

Thanks, I tried all of the above and it still isn't reading the DVD on media player classic, any other DVD I put in it does. Weird. Any other suggestions would be appreciated, but it may not have meant to be, thanks again.
