    I would try another DVD Player software and see what I have to see..

    Before you do the above, check the DMA option for your DVD unit. Try to enable or disable it.
    Also, download and install the latest version of DirectX.

    PowerDVD has a diagnostic that should pop after a fresh install that allows you to enable or disable DMA settings...

    Last time I saw a problem like this it turned out that the firmware of the DVD-ROM was programmed with the wrong region code. What struck me about it at the time was the error message I was getting, which in no way, shape, or form implied that that was the problem. I'm not saying that's your problem, but it's something else to look into if all else fails.
