<< I am having trouble with my computer while playing a DVD movie or DVD-ROM
 game that the computer during the middle of a movie or a movie seqence in a
 DVD-ROM game freezes.  I can't use ctrl-alt-del or anything to break the
 freeze. I have to press the restart button  to restart the computer.

 Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
  I had the same problem, with the same unit. Turns out in my case it was the
screen saver coming on that was causing it, so now I turn off the screen saver
when watching DVDs.

HTH,
Peter Hogan
