You need k-lite codec pack available at http:/www.codecguide.com download the standard version. This allows you to view 95% of the video formats out there, plus it includes a free DVD decoder (what you're looking for). After installing, I've noticed you need to watch the movies with the "Media Player Classic" that comes with the codec pack. It's usually in c:\program files\k-lite codec pack\mplayer.exe or something similar to that.
