Off-Topi: DVD ROM help

December 28, 2001 7:29 AM from

I have this cheapo generic DVD ROM drive, and no matter what movie I feed it, it plays it back at twice its intended speed. I have tested it with two different video cards (Savage4 and geForce 2 MX), and the problem remains. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can do to make the blasted thing play the movies at regular speed?

Hmmm. Very strange. It may be something to do with your decoder/drive not likeing each other. Is your player on the correct speed? Maybe try chaging your decoder/player software. If you cannot find any problems here, ask the tech support for the device about it.

Problem's been solved

A faulty sound card driver was to blame. Did I mention I also have a cheapo Yamaha sound card?

I need to stop being so stingy lol
