What kind of file (*.avi, mkv, etc) are you playing? You are playing them in WMP11, correct?

Thanks

And the dvd player did work under a previous OS like xp? If you play a music cd do you get sound?. Im just rying to figure out if it is a system problem or hware problem

Hope this helps

You can go into device manager (type device manager in search) an go to the dvd icon open it and right click got properties.

It should look like this picture.

You might need a dvd decoder which should also decode the audio. Try searching for one or installing vlc and see if the dvd works in that. You can also get a dvd codec form k-lite codec pack.
