Try installing the latest video drivers for your card.

If that doesn't work, switch to a generic windows driver, remove your video card in device manager, then reboot. When windows reboots, don't let it install the drivers automatically. Then install the newest drivers yourself.

Also, try uninstall and re-installing PowerDVD.

Method of removing video drivers :

Control panel , add/remove , uninstall video card drivers and applications .
System , harware , uninstall video device .

Pc restart's ... turn pc off .

Restart pc , hit F5 or F8 to enter safemode .
Check control panel , system , check for any video device's installed , if listed , uninstall these .

Reboot pc .

Xp finds device , tell it to bugger off .

Now install actual device driver's for the card that is installed .
Reboot pc .
Setup video settings , screen size , number of colour's ... done .

Try dvd playback .

If no go , now do the powerdvd uninstall / reboot / reinstall / reboot , try dvd again .
