My computer just plays cd, my cd rom drive says compact disk , when I put a dvd in the cd rom, it does not do anything at all,

then you don't have a DVD drive... if you have a "downloaded" movie then you might be able to get the windows media player DVD reader install pack, you should be able to at least wathc them like that. but you need a dvd drive to watch tehm from disk

You need a DVD-ROM to watch DVDs.

You can buy very cheap DVD-RWs from newegg. That will allow you to watch DVDs on your PC, as well as making your own

I don;t even have windows media on my computer, are the dvd drives expensive

 

[The General]

Yeah you do, it's part of Windows...

And DVD readers are like $12 and writers are like $30.

$16.69 for an LG DVD-ROM drive.

They're very cheap, as said above, ~$30 for a DVD Re-writer, which you will need for making your own DVDs
