Ok, finally managed to get a DVD player working on my computer only to try and play a DVD and get the message "A compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer"

So in simple terms, what is a DVD decoder and where can I install it?

The software being free is always nice.

Cheers, Keanu

Get Media Player Classic - You can get it as a stand-alone application by googling, but I suggest getting the K-lite media codec pack. This contains Media Player Classic, and with it installed(use default options), you should be able to play any file that comes your way.

Works a beauty biggrin.gif many thanks!

I think this completes my new computer actually. I got a CD/DVD player, second hard drive, good graphics card... it seems all in working order smile.gif

Now if only I could get Camtasia to record RSHD
