Windows 2000 doesn't differentiate a CD-Rom from a DVD player. If you have
the ability or want to play DVDs you have or must get a third party product
to do so.

Right. That's what I was wondering.
More investigation required. If it's not windows then it must be WinAmp. I
have no other software progam on there except Nero and the Media player has
been uninstalled for that.

Thanks.
