you need something to PLAY the DVD's
like straffos link
or

intervideo (http://www.intervideo.com/jsp/Home.jsp)

or

power dvd (http://www.cyberlink.com/multi/products/main_1_ENU.html)

these will allow you to play the dvd format and weatch your movie.
if you have a dvd player/burner it should have had software bundled with the install cd that allows you to play dvd's
also most newer dvd's have dvd player software on the dvd itself that you can install and use. i just dont prefer anything that comes on the dvd's from the movie industry...I have trust issues
