Windows Media Player - DVD Plays but no sound

Please can you help. I was running MS XP. Windows Media Player v10 all was
working OK - I was offered v11 and updated. I then found that a DVD would
play, but without any Sound.
I rolled back to v10, but still no sound. I have had a message DMA switched
off. But this no longer comes up.
I can play audio CDs OK, and MS demo video plays ok with sound.
I would be appreciate any help you may have. Thanks

Check and update your audio codecs. If you do not which codec you
need, you should search the web for a "mega" pack.

to that.

In device manager for the DVD drive's properties make sure it is set to use
digital playback.
