    Right so I buy The Simpsons Series 6 today on DVD. Go home and put in laptop to play - it wont play - no msg comes up or nothing. And you cant hear it spinning around inside. So I take it out and put in a different DVD and it plays no prob.
    I dont have a DVD player to see if it will play on that.

    My query is: on all the discs it says "copy protected" on all 4 discs(of the Simpsons series) - has this something to do with it?
    Pls get back to me if you know.
    Thanks.
    PS If all comes to all Ill have to bring back the DVD to the shop cos its no good to me!

    What Laptop do you have?
    What OS do you have?
    What media player were you trying to play it with?
    If you're using windows vista/xp, try downloading vlc player, just type it into google and you should find a download pretty quick.

    Some versions of Vista, particularly the business ones don't have a DVD driver. If this is the case download the software as outlined by previous poster.
