WMP11 wont play DVD

Hello,
When I try to play a DVD, I get the message >Windows Media Player cannot
play this DVD because there is a problem with copy protection between your
DVD drive, decoder and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your
video card< I have tried that via the web help button and downloaded all
available downloads. The problem is not peculiar to that particular DVD as
the message would seem to suggest. The message appears no matter which DVD I
try to play. Is there a site I can go to to correct the problem.
Thank you.
