DVD Decoder for pc

[filthiestfis]

I cannot play dvds on my pc since reinstalling, does anyone know where I can get a dvd decoder from and is it free? Thanks

DVD playing programs are often free on various magazine cover discs, so see inside mag for contents.

Did you get one on CD when you bought the PC ?

It may be called Power DVD for example.

Check the CDs that came with your PC.

Thanks Jake, I downloaded one of the players from the list on the website, it doesnt work brilliantly, seems to jump a lot, so might try another but thank you anyway!
