I have recently re install windows xp on my computer and its all working fine except one thing. when i put in a dvd i cant watch it on windows media player it says that i am missing a dvd codex and to download one. i cant find any dvd software for this and they all want me to pay $50 or more to buy a new PROGRAM. i WOULD like to just get windows media player working to play dvds ( ive tried vcl media player) it was working before i re installed the software. any help would be much appreciated. thankshttp://www.free-codecs.com/download/K_lite_codec_pack.htm

BRONI....This is a free-help forum. We don't ask for money.

As punishment, you owe me $50. I'll pay you with those gift certificates, you owe me Computeruler isn't here, who are you talking to?

LolOh, LOL, he'll pay anyway....hehehehefor being a free service there is alot of charges lol. i will try that and see how it works i installed it and the media player classic works for PLAYING dvds not the best quality and looks like it laggs a little but it will work.

thank you for your help You're welcome
You can also try VLC Player: http://www.videolan.org/vlc/You can also try Gom Player, it's decent as well. http://www.gomlab.com/eng/GMP_download.html

But, I think one media player you're comfortable enough with should suffice
