    Why won't my blu-ray/hd-dvd drive work?

    I have Just purchased an LG blu ray and HD-DVD player with powerdvd 7.3. The software installed ok, but i cant play a HD-DVD (havent tried blu-ray as i have none!) My LG is recognised in device manager as is working ok (it will play standard dvd's, however when i try to play a HD-DVD i get this message: Fail to enable HDCP. Please switch to analog output (VGA, D-Sub) and try again. (Error Code = 0107)" I use a samsung 42inch plasma tv connected to my computer via a HDMI cable. I tried to update the software from cyberlink, after which all i got were computer crashes.
