It ran fine on Windows 98, but now my codecs don't work on XP.  Any ideas?

Also, (In Windows 98) I'll take a screenshot of a DVD, and when I go to paste it, I don't get the picture - I get the movie.  So I'm watching a movie in Photoshop.  How do I bypass this?

I've always used PowerDVD. Got PowerDVD 5.0 and it's got lots of nice features. Now if only I could find a soundcard that could decode DTS.

All the Sound Blaster Audigy 2 zs sound cards decode DTS audio if you have nice speakers its a very good option Smiley
