    Okay so I bought a plexter B310u on newegg, ran perfectly and all, but I am having big issues playing my blu-rays . First I tried playing on a.i touchmedia ( asus w90 ), and opens up the studio logo ( tried brokeback mountain, and the godfather part II ), but it stops in the menu .

    The video plays, and you can hear sound as well, but it doesn't let me do anything . Not change the setting, not be able to select chapters, or hit play . A green window appears on the left upper corner of the screen saying " standard mode " Can't take it off .

    I put the dvd troy on the blu-ray player and ran perfectly . I downloaded cyberlink power dvd, same thing . Standard mode, and can't press the menu, or anything really . I patched it up with an apperant old patch, nope . So I downloaded the most recent patch ( 94.0 mb ) . Nope .

    I heard someone in Newegg in the reviews saying that he had to download a 400mb patch, but ive been searching for it and haven't found it :(


    I really would appreciate if anyone could help me ! Wanna play my blu-ray's, but can't !!!

    You have to have a blu-ray software player. When I bought my blu-ray player it came with software, didn't yours came with one?
