DVD Playback too fast

I had been playing DVDs on my new Dell 4550 without difficulty for about 2-3 weeks with a Samsung DVD-ROM SD-616T player. Now when I try to play a DVD, it opens and runs but choppy at about 1.5-2X faster than normal along with choppy sound. This happens when I play the DVD with any program [PowerDVD, WinDVD, Windows Media player or RealOne player]. Dell support has no idea!!! Could it simply be a bad DVD player or a problem with a video/audio codec???? Audio CDs play fine.
