Why I am having problems watching BD-ROM movies on my computer?

Answer:

Most BD-ROM movie titles are copy-protected. In order to watch copy-protected BD-ROM movies, your computer must meet the minimum system requirements as stated here below.

  • CPU: Pentium D 3.4GHz (Recommend Core 2 Duo 2.4GHz or higher)
  • RAM: 512MB (Recommend 1GB or more)
  • Display: HDCP-supported HDMI or DVI video input (Recommend 1920 x 1080 or higher)
  • Graphic card: PCI Express compatible, HDCP supported HDMI or DVI video output, video RAM 256MB, the latest device driver from the graphic card manufacturers. 
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 or ATI Radeon X1600 or higher (Highly Recommend NVIDIA GPU with PureVideo HD technology or ATI GPU with UVD technology.)
  • Supporting playback software application
  • OS: Windows XP Home / Professional SP2, Windows Vista Home Basic / Home Premium / Business / Ultimate
  • Internet connection (Highly Recommend Broadband)
