I remember blogging few months ago, regarding my experience with Vista. The only thing that was now causing trouble, was watching videos/DVDs on it. Vista kept on crashing. Searching the internet I came to know that this problem has a technical term in the industry now; Timeout Detection and Recovery (TDR). This is well documented on the MS website.
Unfortunately, even after updating to the latest drivers from NVidia, the problem remained as it is. Last week, I downloaded the latest version (0.8.6c) of VLC Media Player for Vista and installed it. The same video that kept on crashing in WMP 11 or Real Player, worked perfectly fine on VLC! The DVDs too run absolutely fine now.
I have not been able to identify the exact reason, maybe it is the codec that WMP and other players use or the default codecs configuration in my system. Will do some R&D and post here, if I find the exact reason.
At this moment I am a happy Vista customer!
