BSOD when trying to PLAY dvds

[DominionX]

I've run into an interesting problem with my computer, I'm running XP SP1 and have a QPS DVD-R burner on firewire. Yesterday, my computer started giving me BSOD when I try to play a dvd. I can view the directory of a disk with no problem, doesn't make a difference if it's a commercial disk or one that I've burned.

The last change I made to my system was upgrading the Nvidia drivers, I've since rolled back to the previous version. I'm at a loss as to what could be causing this problem, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

"Blue Screen Of Death"

Which player do you use?

[DominionX]

I've tried them all, MediaPlayer 10, PowerDVD, Intervideo, Real...and the BSOD rarely reports the same reason for the crash, I've seen everything from BAD_POOL_HEADER to TCPIP.SYS, reported as the cause of the crash.

TCPIP.SYS... your system is screwed. Best backup and format.
