Pioneer blue ray player/burner will not play in my brand new computer. I have anNvidea gf 9800 gt vid card.I have downloaded several free drivers, but no luck yet. Has anyone heard of this kind of trouble before?

You'll need to be a LOT more specific.

USB, IDE, Esata. What operating system?

What do you mean by doesn't work? Does it work as a Dvd player, is it recognized by Windows? When you installed it did Windows ask for drivers and then say it was installed properly?

More info please

Serial ata interface. PioneerBDC-SO2BK bd-rom/dvd/cd writer. Windows xp edition only supported with 32 bit, not 64. It does work with installation programs and games. Just no blue ray disc playback. I did have a friend load xp on my computer. Maybe I should remove and reinstall?

And you're using Powerdvd Blu-Ray edition?

vlc media player.

I just checked on the price of powerdvd 50.00. I could purchase it if it would work. I just think it shoud play with the disc they give you.

Yea I think PowerDvd is the only one that works right now though.

Downloaded trial version of powerdvd. It actually started to play. however i got an error. It said that my connection device is digital, but not hdcp. I am using a dvi cable from nvidea 9800 gt card to my hanns g hw191d monitor. Is this error in my computer operating system?

It is because your monitor is not HDCP enabled.

A program called AnyDvd HD solves that problem
