O.K I'll answer your questions in reverse.
The most likely reason it only plays a quarter of the movie is because your opening the individual .VOB files in powerdvd and not "Enqueueing" the others - which is annoying because going that way you have to figure out which .vobs apply to the main movie.
I wouldn't bother with windows media player - its crap for DVDs though power dvd should play the dvd if you right click on the drive and select autoplay. Also check that the dvd isn't scratched and try reinstalling the DVD's firmware - but make damn sure its from the right website(manufacturer). They'll usually have an upgrade, might also help if you posted which dvd player your using, i.e make and model no:
