What hardware is required for playing HDCP protected discs on a PC?

I have a HDCP video card and monitor, but no Blu-Ray drive (yet). Will I be able to play HDCP protected media? What all is required?|||yes u can play protected content like hd-dvds and blu-ray disc on that. all u need to play copy protected content is a hdcp video card and a cable like dvi or vga ( dvi is better). and of course u need a display that can output to 1080p (1920x1080) if u want to play blu-ray movies.
