New WinDVD BD update 8.0.9.301_3 dated 17.03.08

[marcoda]

Has anyone had any luck installing this update?
Tried with my FZ21Z running Vista and get message "a fatal error has occurred while installing WinDVD" at the Installshield Wizard. The green progress bar only gets half way.
Any ideas?

Hi heliman001
Have raised this as an e-query.
I'll post here if I get anything sensible out of Sony Support.

Can you all check which version of WinDVD BD you already have installed and post the answer here?

It will be the first question that Vaio-Link will ask, so if we can give them some info, it may help get a solution.

Open WinDVD BD -> Right-Click on the WinDVD screen -> Settings -> select the final Tab and read the Version.

Hi I have the same problem, I have a viao ar51J and the version of winDVD BD is 8.0 DXVA B08.425. I thought it had downloaded but, after reading it again it says it had failed, and now I cannot get it to download at all.
