Error Message When Trying to Play DVD's

‎04-24-2011 09:15 AM

I get the following error message when trying to play DVD's:

 

"Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD drive, decoder, and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your video card."

 

My OS is Windows seven, and I do not see any video upgrades on the HP Support site. Help!!
