Unhappy Sony Vaio laptop Blu-Ray reading problem

Hi guys,

I have a problem here.. Lemme explain

Im using a Sony Vaio VGN-FW170J which comes with a blu-ray player/tray/whatever.

I have blu-ray movies, concerts which i can play on my PS3 just fine. But when it comes to this laptop i can't play the movies. None of them. I CAN play the concert blu-rays which are Alice Cooper-Live at Montreux and Korn-Live at Montreux. But i can't play movies such as The Spider-Man Trilogy, Day of The Dead, Halloween, The Dark Knight etc..

Weird thing is that the bonus blu-ray disc of Spider-Man 3 works just fine along with the concert blu-ray's. No frame-rate issues nothing..

I tried the Intervideo WinDVD which came with the laptop and the PowerDVD and Arcsoft Total Media Theater etc. which you guys mentioned over here. NOTHING. I can NOT play movies. I get the NO DISC message and when i press play, nothing happens.

Also there is a sticker on top of my laptop saying,

''Certain circumstances may limit compatibility or prevent Blu-Ray Disc Playback. Vaio computers may not support movie playback on packaged media recorded in AVC or VC1 formats at high bit rates.''


Note: This computer uses MATSHITA BD-CMB UJ-120 player/device to play the discs. And ive tried upgrading the WindDVD etc. nothing.


I hope someone can help me. Thanks guys.
