201975 2003-12-20 20:16:00 Hi, i have a AOPEN 16x DVD-ROM/AMH and i have Intervideo WinDvd version 4 DxvA.

We have a dvd here and when we try play it it comes up with the message "create overlay failed"try lowering your resolution or color depth and try again.

We do this, many times.

The DVD wont play through WMP either.
The DVD is a zone 4 PAL. (Jackass volume two)

please help
