    How do I watch DVDs on my computer?

    I've tried windows media player (v.11) but I only get an error message telling me to change my screen resolution and color quality, which doesn't help.

    I've also tried vlc (v.8.5) but when I try to play the DVD the DVD-menu pops up and 1 sec later the screen gets blurry and colorful and then it stops playing the DVD.

    I use PowerDVD, I have a free version, but this version seems to be a trial version, so you better find an earlier version.

    I use InterVideo's WinDVD. The progam came with my laptop...IIRC, it's $50 to buy. :bad:

    Just hop on to download.com and search for "free DVD players" and I'm sure you'll find a good one. :thumb: :rolling:
