My son has started to get problems with distorted sound when playing DVDs on his PC.

Up until a few weeks ago, everything was fine. Then he tried the Star Wars disk that he'd got for Xmas and had problems. Like a berk, he attempted to clean it with a dry tissue!!!!!! That didn't help and ever since he now gets problems with all DVDs - even ones that were fine beforehand.

However, it seems to be fine when playing music CDs.

Anyone got any thoughts on what could have gone wrong?

You could try using some new Software. It might not be the drive, but the software you're using to watch DVDs.

Just a thought.

I use powerDVD, it's pretty good.
