I have the LG GGC H20L blu ray player and it is not working properly under Windows 7 RC (64 bit). It plays DVD and CD discs fine, but no Blu-Ray. I've tried several players and updated the display drivers and the PowerDVD test application claims it should work but no luck. I have not yet found an LG driver that explicitly says it is for Windows 7 yet (32 or 64 bit) so wondering if that's my problem - anyone else having luck with this drive under Windows 7?

Did the drive recognise there's a disk in it? i.e. accessible from 'Computer'
And which version of PowerDVD did you use?

It did recognize it actually - I could see the title on both the explorer and in the player. I was using the newest trial version of powerdvd - but also tried the older, full version that came with it and a few other players I've since downloaded. It says "Loading.." in the players (or equivalent spinny-icon metaphor) and just sits there.

Had to reboot into Win 7 RC to check. Have the H20L. Had not loaded player software, so loaded cyberlink PowerDVD ver 7 - let it do its thing - needs an update for blu-ray. Tryed Cruel World, played no problem. Also tried the m2ts file from 10000BC and that also played.
