power dvd will play your movie files and there are a lot of free ones as well.

Windows media player will also play your movies if you install the codecs needed.

ive been able to get the movie to play.when i look at the files it is saved as 5 or 6 individual files on the hard drive for the entire movies,when it plays back you can see the transfer to the next file because theres a pause in the movie.is it the way i copied it or is that normal?ty for you quick response earlier

if you really want to watch movies on your pc I would suggest coping your movies that you want to watch to iso format it creates one single file but you will need a program that plays back iso format like powerdvd does. and there is a free one too let me see if I can find it for you.

I use power dvd and nero showtime and havent encountered that happening it plays right through with no pause I will give it a try and let you know if I encounter any issues like that what program are you using to view the movie?

heres a link for the free player and and the page tells you all about it.

and it does play iso format.

VLC Media Player - Download ([Only registered and activated users can see links])
