If your computer was provided with a DVD drive then you should have a = piece of software like PowerDVD or WinDVD. These play DVDs ok but I think that Windows Media Player is probably mostly easier. If PowerDVD or WinDVD aren't installed then you probably don't have a 'licence' to play DVDs. This will also lead Windows Media Player not to = play them properly. You can buy a licence from the Internet as a Windows = Media Player add-on, but it's better to try and find that original PowerDVD or WinDVD CD ROM to get it all working.
