I have a Latitude D505 that crashed so I had to install everything from scratch. Everything seems to work okay except that it won't play DVDs (DVD games, DVD movies, etc.). The CD player works fine to load stuff up, etc.

I've looked at the Dell CDs that came with the laptop but can't find a DVD player. I also looked for just a codec to get Windows Media Player to play DVDs, but no luck there either. The DVD-ROM unit is the Teac DV-28E-C.

Can anyone help? Thanks!

Try getting media player classic and playing DVDs with that.
I think PowerDVD installs a DVD decoder when you install it, but I've never looked for a DVD decoder on its own.
