I have been able to play other discs like my wife's sewing and embroidery cd's but these won't play. Windows media player self starts and then the message about the DVD player not being compatible pops up in the middle of the Media Player screen.

Grainger has one for about $35.00 but Grizzly has one for about $10 bucks. Look in the online Grizzly catalog for the Morse #2 extension.

I have been trying to access the SUG.ORG website for the past several days and I keep getting the message that the link is broken even though I try to connect through my Favorites list. I even get the message when I type in the address. Anyone else have the same problem?? Are they gone??
