Title: my computer is fuck't
Post by: Farren on April 27, 2009, 10:59:26 pm
So I got two problems:

I can't play dvd movies through my disk drive for some reason (dunno?) but I can play games just fine.

And when I play a game called lineage 2 my comp shuts down. I think its because its overheating but I don't know why that is happening my fan is clean and nothings covering the vent up. That never happened before either.


so how do I fix?

I play private servers though there is no way I'd pay for that shit.

So DVD games work fine? What software do you use to play the DVDs? Have you tried more than one?

what version of windows are you using? check out your bios, make sure you don't have your computer set to turn off when idle and your dvd drive supports analogue mode, do the same thing within windows.

it probably won't help this is a long shot.

By "the dvd" do you mean one disc, or all of them?

What happens when you put in a DVD that doesn't work?
Do you have any disk emulation software installed/running?
