I installed WinDVD 4 on my old laptop that's running Windows 2000. DVDs play
very choppy. When it was new with Win98, it could play DVD's fine. I have no
Idea what player was on it then. I wonder if there is a more efficient
player that will work until I can afford a new Laptop. It is an AMD K6
475MHz Thanks BG
