Check:
1.  The DVD Rom drive.  It could be having a problem reading DVDs.
2.  The Cache settings in the player software.  This made a HUGE difference 
for me.  The problem is that its been working for so long, I can't direct you 
to how to find it.

If you can play the DVDs in another machine, I would be your having some 
hardware issues.  I use the same version as you and have had no problems 
playing DVDs.
