Windows does not play VCD directly. There are two ways you can do this: Method 1: 1) browse the CD, go to the MPEGAV subfolder 2) right click on the .DAT file, then open it with MPLAYER (Windows media player). The MPEG movie will be played on your screenMethod 2: Install Sthsvcd software on your laptop. It will play your VCD as soon as you insert the CD in. This is the best way.
