Re: PCWorks: How to play DVDs on laptop

[Keith Thompson]

If your computer has the dvd drive, you should have the dvd player 
program that will run those.  I have a Toshiba with a CDRW/DVD drive and 
received a program on the machine that I had to install which allows me 
to play dvd disks.  Check the software that came with your machine or 
the extra software that may be in a folder with your computer brand as 
its name.  there may be a dvd player in the sub folders of that.

of Nero Media Player, which is asking me to purchase a plug-in.
How does one go about playing a DVD on a computer? Anyone know of any
freebies programs which can enable it. All tips appreciated -- thanks.
