Power dvd menu problems please help

[leperlord]

i have two real odd problems here i`m sure are my

newbie failings

Ie: Using any version Cyberlink power dvd , my problem is playing

BR and HD-DVD movies with full menus , i cant get past the

menu screen with options etc . like scene / extras / play

selection , the mouse wont access these . How do i access

these so i can start the movie or view the extras ?

i have read the manual to no avail and i quote the manual

" When you insert your DVD movie disc, after playing the warning messages, your DVD Movie Main Menu will appear in the video window. You can locate the Menu Pad by clicking on the outer arrow button on your PowerDVD Main Control Panel. The directional arrows allow you to select the options on your main DVD movie menu, and then you can click on the center button to enter your selected menu option. "

1st off there are no outer arrows .

Another problem is , with some flix ,

using same mentioned player , i cant get video on my

Sony tv when i use to play this flick , but i do on my pc

monitor ,

i have a intel 2.4 dual core , intel DG965SS main board ,

Nvidea GeForce 8800 GTSoc

2 gig DDR 2 ram

win xp pro

CoreAVC_H.264_Video_Codec_v1.5.0.0

i have all latest drivers and updates for my software and hardware

i`ve heard there are no software programs that play these discs

with menus etc..Is this true , is cyberlink a big rip off ?

Can anyone suggest some alternative software ?

Cheers
