Dvd Playback Issue.

Hello everyone.

My computer skills are quite limited, so I'm really hoping you can assist me with this issue.

I have a fairly new computer and it's been working perfectly in all aspects but two.

First of all, I can't enable USB in bios, because it causes windows XP to freeze at startup, but that's not why I'm posting here.

Second of all, I can't play any DVD's. All video works great, exept DVD playback.
All of my players lag and stutter a lot when trying to play a dvd. The whole computer almost freezes. The lag is for both audio and video.

I've installed a lot of codecs and nothing has helped.

My specifics:

XP Professional Service Pack 2
NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT
HL-DT-ST RW/DVD GCC-4481B (A dell dvd-drive)

Any information would help since I'm all out of ideas...
 
You have the usb cable in the right header on the motherboard? Don't mistakenly put in the 1394 header. As far as the computer freezing you need to tear your system down and start over. Try assembling the motherboard outside the case, you may be grounding the motherboard against the case. Did you attach the standoffs before attaching mobo?
 
Yeah it's in the right header. It says USB1 above it. I've tried the USB2 header aswell. But it's not just the front-USB its all 4. Could 2 faulty usbports cause all 4 to malfunction?

I also installed the standoffs before inserting the motherboard, so it's not being grounded against the case.

Thank you for your input though.
 
Well, either you have a bad motherboard or the usb ports on the case could be wired incrorrectly or bad.
 
Since the wired ones+the rear-ones doesn't work it shouldn't be a wiring-issue.

My conclusion was that it was the motherboard. It just kind of surprises me because the USB's on this motherboard worked just fine before I did some remodeling (Which first led me to believe it was a hardware-problem of some kind).
