Is Microsoft's Silverlight Causing DVD Playback Issues?

[mugaliens]

Last night I broken down and installed Microsoft's Silverlight. Ever since then I've not been able to play any DVDs, whether via Microsoft's programs or ZoomPlayer (my favorite). I uninstalled Silverlight, but still no joy.

I have no problem reading or writing data CDs or DVDs, but when it comes to playing movies, all I get is "Could not find a DVD or BlueRay disc."

Any ideas?

Regardless, THANK YOU, MICROSOFT, for jacking up yet ANOTHER perfectly functional portion of your operating system.

I've already switched to http://download.openoffice.org/" .

Uninstalling silverlight solved the problem. Back to watching movies.
