I upgraded to XP fgrom ME and I tried to play a DVD it
states I need to update my decoder, I have down loaded
the media player for XP home. The message states to check
with your DVD software manufacturer for an up date. I
called microsoft to no avail they sent me here for
assistance. Will appreciate any information you can

It's not a driver, it's a decoder. Third party software such as PowerDVD or
WinDVD.
