Download DVD Decrypter from www.afterdawn.com --> downloads (search at top of page)

Instal and open. Decrypt the disc to a directory on your computer. It will take about 8 mins (sometimes longer, sometimes shorter). Next open the folder you ripped (decrypted) it to. Select the VIDEO_TS.IFO file and right click. Choose a program to play it with. Ta da

You could use the free EasyDivX (search in google - it might be www.easydivx.com) to convert the DVD to DivX and it will play as an AVI file on your computer. You need to have ASPI layers installed, which you can get from www.afterdawn.com - search button at top.

40? thats a bit much - hold on....

Right, go to settings --> File mode --> select Movie Only and split by file

Go to IFO Mode then --> Enable Main movie PGC and file splitting 1GB (you can change this to none and it will create one file - it might be worth while trying that)

try that - im off to bed (its 2.00am here) to watch some football - hope you get on ok :-D
