I am just starting to dabble with the idea of creating a DVD Library. I downloaded DVD Shrink and had no problem re-authoring a DVD. I got the up-to-date drivers for my ATI Radeon 8500 that ATI offered on their website. Then I downloaded a trial version of PowerDVD 6 to try and view the DVD backup from my hard drive. When I try to execute PowerDVD, I get an hour glass for a few seconds and then nothing. I went into task manager and I can sse the PDVDServ.exe and PowerDVD.exe processes running. I can view the file from WMP and from NeroVision. Anyone have any idea why the PowerDVD won't show up? I have read that this is a fantastic program and really wanted to check it out.

First you should check out this thread in the Tech Forum, where this short-lived thread should have been started, and where it would have been quickly locked.

And we're serious.
