Best Answer: The previously mentioned codecs may help you view DVDs, but nothing will work better than an upgrade to 10, which plays DVDs just fine.

WMP cannot play DVDs without a DVD decoder installed because Windows doesn't come bundled with one.

This is most likely the answer already. If you had any other DVD program installed, you'd use it. You probably saw that WMP can play DVDs, but it does not come with a decoder, because Microsoft would have to license that. Well, they don't, and so you still have to install a decoder.
