    So I just received my 8710p an upgrade from my 9420. from work. Its got the T7700 2.40 Cemtrino pro, 2gb ram, 320NVS, BD drive. I installed XP all drivers etc.. even installed 8700 gt drivers and the blu-ray wont play anything. Intervideo, PowerDVD and Nero wont play. Cyberlink pops up an error saying player cannot support this content. 1. your optical drive is revoked, please contact your drive manufacturer 2. cannot support duplicate of copyrighted disc, 3. Cannot support protected Content from hard disc HDD. Anyone have this issue or any ideas??

    Thanks for help.

    if you have changed the code many times you may have disabled your drive
