I have a DVD player that attaches to a laptop via a USB cord. I tried to watch a movie for the first time on my new Acer laptop yesterday, but the DVD player kept closing itself and disappearing after several seconds, even when I didn't touch the computer at all.
I already uninstalled and reinstalled the DVD player app, tried another DVD to make sure that the disc I was playing wasn't the problem, and installed a different DVD player app, which had the same issue as the first. Additionally, this CD player worked perfectly fine on my previous laptop, and it paired well with the first DVD player app I was using.
This has led me to conclude that the problem must be my new laptop. What could be causing this issue, and how can I fix it?
