DVDs on Vista (more DRM crap)

[NewsBot]

Is there anyway to get Vista to play DVDs when you have unsigned video drivers?* The fact that you can't, is well, extremely annoying.*

 

I'm stuck between using official signed video drivers that haven't been updated since March (thanks Dell!) and recent, bug-fixing ATI drivers that may or may not contain a "slight hack" to allow them to be installed on my laptop.

Why OEMs don't let ATI/NVIDIA distribute laptop drivers I'll never quite understand. But anyway, this has to be the first time DRM-related technology has actually pissed me off. I'm stuck between being able to play DVDs and having video drivers that can run recent games.

 

Microsoft, go fix the industry please, thanks.
