I try to run it in powerDVD and I get 1fps, washed out video, and basic suckyness. I have re-installed and this is a fairly clean install of Win2k. All other DVD's work perfectly.

Edit: The DIVX player has a similar problem. The only thing that can seem to play it is the interactual player included with the DVD (which doesn't support surround sound)

Have you tried the dvd in a home player? Does it work?
What vid card are you using and what drivers?

New titles are coming out with a new region-protection key, and sometimes is unplayable in computer DVD drives. A friend of mine had similar problems with a few other titles. I told him to install DVD Region-Free. Everything is working fine now.

You should at least try it, there's a free trial version on their site.
