    DVD Rom problems
    I am experiencing problems with DVD playback, the DVD player will play video & audio for a few seconds, then it runs sort of in a slow motion in jerky movements, or stops altogether and then it restarts again. Basically stop and go situation. The problem just started a couple days ago, I had no problem before.

    I have performed every possible test and diagnostic service that Dell provided on my computer, but to no avail. I know it's not the playback software that I am using (PowerDVD loaded by Dell) as the same problem occurs when I am using the MS Media Player or Real Player. The DVD ROM that Dell installed on my computer is Samsung SD-616T. Unfortunately my warranty has expired so I cannot get any help from Dell.

    Can anyone help? Please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Yeah, companies that dont help you just because your warranty has expired are complete losers. Just taking a wild guess, are you positive you do not have a virus/spyware? If I were you, I'd sell the old DVD-ROM on ebay and get a new one from newegg.com(great prices/service). Sorry I cant be of further help
