Yeah Tommy is right , go for VLC player all the way..WMP sucks eggs unless you have a million and one codecs installed.

Hmmmm , thats unusual cos VLC player is the dugs bawz , and plays just about every file known to man.

Found this in another forum , try having a read through it see if there is a positive solution or other steps you could try.

Have you tried power dvd. I use it to watch all my dvds with it

Friend of mine had similar problem, but only when attempting to play on his PC. He downloaded "Anydvd" I think that's what it was called, and he's had no problems since. I don't know if it is free or costs or if there is a trial version.

Are you getting the same kind of error message when trying to play it through VLC player ?

Are you setting VLC as your default media player , right click open with .

If that was in response to my post....Yes I know you are. I meant that my mates DVD played fine in a DVD player but encountered the same as you with his PC.
Anyway, spoke to him on the phone, and he says there is a free trial version. I had a look and its free for 21 days if you care to try it.

This is probably not going to help, but did you make sure the disk is clean and there is also no dust etc on the actual drive itself?

There is data embedded on the disc in an attempt to prevent copying that is why Cashbox is getting the error even though he is only trying to play the disc, it is a common problem, and why software such as "Anydisc" (that I mentioned earlier) became available.
