    My Studio XPS 16 came with a normal DVD drive and I swapped a CA10N bluray drive into it. Then when I tried to play any blu-ray movie I have no luck.
    When I run the Cyberlink Advisor it said my hardware doesn't have Dual-Decode Compatibility but once I fresh install the catalyst 10.11 the Advisor could detect those dual-decode thing and could play bluray. Once I restart the machine, it can't play bluray again...

    Any ideas?

    Edit: Nevermind I figured that out...It's the stupid catalyst 10.11. Roll back to 10.10 with hotfix makes the thing work again.
