    I bought cyberLink Power DVD for (obviously) play DVD films on my computer. I have some questions however;

    1) Is it legal to copy the films I've bought unto my hard drive? (I've no dvd burner)

    2) Should I watch them in my 17' computer Screen or on my 19' analog five years old TV? (My graphic card support TV-out)

    3) What kind of wire and installation should I need to be able to watch DVD on my TV screen

    4) How can I make WinXP work propreply when both my headphones and speaker are connected to the computer?

    1) yes, so long as you only make one copy and don't distribute it and don't sell the original

    2) your 17" monitor ... much clearer crisper video

    3) see #2

    4) need more info .. what sound card? do you have the latest drivers? make sure your amp is configured correctly. Choose either speaker or headphones, don't try and run them at the same time
