installed xp home edition on a Emachine 550 and now I get
a no disk in "e" drive error - will not play a DVD .
plays music CD ok. Installed power DVD - Direct DVD
still no play back of DVD.

I can't believe you purchase a product and have to pay to
talk to some one because this computer now has an error.
nice support microsoft

Rick R. Can't play DVD since installing XP - waiting...
 
Well, do you have a DVD player installed? You need a DVD player
to play DVDs. A CD-ROM drive will not play back DVDs.

If will do have a DVD player installed:

Open XP's "Help and Support" and type: DVD , and hit enter.
Click on the topic titled: "DVD Troubleshooting".
