Download DVD Info Pro

Install it
Activate Later (button, bottom right hand corner)

Now you know for sure

Also have a look at Image Mastering API v2.0 (IMAPIv2.0) for Windows XP

It does play DVDs, so therefore it must be a faulty drive
Please replace it (I usually clean it first, with one of those cleaning discs)

Done :grinthumb
