When I try and play a DVD you can see it but there is no sound. I've got the latest version for XP. Why won't this work?

It "sounds" like your problem may be with your speakers. Check to make sure they are not muted or turned down (Start, Control Panel, Sound) or if you have external speakers, that they are powered on.

May sound obvious, but you do have a DVD-ROM drive, don't you?
Are you running the latest version of Media Player (11)? If not, download it from Microsoft.
Also, in Media Player, check Tools>Options>File Types to make sure that DVD is ticked. If not, select it.

There is a slider just under the picture window in media player which is the volume control.

It sounds like you need to reload your drivers.. Go to windows updates and look up the drivers for your system..
