Ok, my friend just gave me a AVI rip of one of his DVDs. The first time I watched the file it was perfect, absolutely clear and no problems what so ever. I left it for a few days and came back to it to watch it again and when it started playing the picture was upside down. I have deleted the file and got a new one from my friend but same deal. The file works on other PCs but not mine.
Any ideas?

Try using DivX dvd decoder... This (http://www.divx.com/divx/windows/download/) I had to get it to play AVI's correctly

Well it's all working great now buddy thanks for the help. I am currently converting all the files to HD 1080p so they look the best on our new 50" Plasma. +rep for your help

Yep, no problem! Glad that worked!
Simpson's movie played once then only sound until I installed that. 50"? NICE I wish I had!

I assume these are promotional copies. :)
I also have a 50" 1080, Do you have a Ray Burner?

Well the movie got poor reviews but come on...it,s a Rambo movie. I really liked the movie, lots of action and gore all round.

The movie is the pre release black and white version which they give to video stores.
No no Blue Ray burner, just an upscaling 1080p DVD recorder (non HDD).
