I mentioned that I got a laptop with the awful Vista and now I keep getting incompatibilities between it and some of the programs I had installed with no problem in my XP.

The thing is that I don't use Windows Media Player because I don't like it, and I usually use The Core Media Player and the PowerDVD XP edition.

I finally got the Core and the PowerDVD installed with more or less success but when I try to make proper captures with the PowerDVD, it freezes on me almost constantly (because I already got the warning that this version of PowerDVD has problems with Vista but I went ahead anyway).

So I want recommendations of dvdplayers which I can use to make caps. Pretty please???
