I installed a DVD Rom that I got, but like it only reads cd's, can anybody lead me to a free program that I can install that will let me watch dvd's and movies
be more specific. the problem might be with your drive,it might have been coincidence. no software will fuck up your drive(unless its a malicious virus programmed to do that) which in this case it is not.
go to my computer,see if the drive is reading the cd or dvd.
