I am having trouble with my DVD player.

Recently, the sound has been skipping and sounds jittery. I know it is not the video card or media player because WMP HighDef videos paly wonderfully on my computer. It just started out of nowhere too. Anybody know what could be wrong here?

Windows XP Pro
Pentium 4 3.2GHz
1 GB DDR RAM
Nvidia 128MB Geforce 6800
ARTEC DHM-G48R DVD

I just ran Nero CD/DVD Speed test and I was playnig music at the time. The CD test was fine but once I started the DVD test, my music just turned into garbled garbage but once I stopped the test it went right back to fine.

Borrow a friends DVD drive and put it in place of the one you have now. Try that same DVD test and see if the music turns too garbage again. If it isn't your DVD drive try that same test but swap out the sound card. Maybe you can isolate where the problem is

Also even though it'd probably not the software i would try other software just incase. i would suggest VLC Player www.videolan.org

Tested out another DVD drive and figured out it is infact the drive, not the software.
