Computer Question
#1
Hey guys, I have a computer I was trying to watch a dvd on and I got an error message saying I didn't have the proper codec to view the disk.  Do you guys know of any free codecs I can download and watch the dvd in Windows Media Player?

Funny, I posted last week on how much I hate Windows Media Player (for the exact issue you are having).  At the advice of some members on the site I downloaded VLC media player and it works great on every file I have tried. 

I think the MP4 files are what were giving me issues with WMP.

VLC is a great application... I use it for all video files, and WinAMP for all audio files.
