No. A CD ROM will *only* read music or data CDs unless it's a Writer, too. Then you can 'write' CDs with it in addition to simply reading them.\n\nYou need a DVD reader to read and/or play DVDs as well as CDs. There are also DVD reader/writers on the market, too, but they are more expensive because they'll read/write both CDs and DVDs.\n\nOnce you have a DVD reader installed, you will need software to use it with such as WinDVD or PowerDVD. I, personally, prefer PowerDVD. It's a pay program but only about $30, tops.

No. You will have to download a DVD codex to play DVD's. There free codex available if you search through yahoo or google. Window's Media will make you pay for these.

You cannot possible format a CD unless they are CD - RW's but possible there's no subject of formatting CD, to be played in a DVD Player. All you have to do is write the CD in a VCD Format. Software like Nero has the facility. DVD CD should be written in DVD Video Format, so that they too can be played in DVD Players.\n\nBYE

Firstly, make sure your CD-ROM drive is compatible with DVD media. You should be able to see the DVD logo on the front of the drive or you can find your drive's properties in Device Manager. \nSecondly, you need a DVD decoder and a program like Windows Media Player to view DVD's on your system. \nTry visiting http://download.com/ and searching for DVD decoders.

No - standard CD players (unless they are so-called "combo drives" which are Cd-burners/DVD-Roms, in computers) can not play a DVD.

Yes, it is possible to play the presentation CD even if the computer on which it is played does not have Powerpoint installed. Just choose the "Package for CD" option in the File Menu and you are ready to show your presentation anywhere.

Well the first guy isnt to bright, there is no cd+r only cd-r ... you are thinking of blank dvds. But yes if it is old it may not be capable of playing a recorded cd. Make sure you are burning it as an audio cd because unless you have a very new cd player it will not play Windows Media Format, if thats not the case follow these steps.\n\n1) Try a different burning software ... I dont like windows Media Player for burning, I use Nero Burning Rom\n\n2) Try Different Media (A Different brand, some burners dont like certain brands of cds)\n\n3) Check that all the required system files are there, this can be done using Nero Drive Test.\n\n4) Run a drive test to see if it is performing properly (These can normally be downloaded from the manufacturers website) If it fails return it to the store.\n\nI mentioned Nero Burning Rom above, get it from www.nero.com

It is hard to do it on DVD player.  You will have to produce the video clip manually.  Roxio Picture CD function can mix jpg with wav.

No, nero is a burning software. This means that you can CREATE dvd/cd assuming you have a blank disc.\nTo play dvds, you simply need a dvd read drive. Many programs will let you view the dvd after the fact.\nSuch examples are:\nWindows Media Player\nRealplayer\nMedia Player Classic\nWinDVD\nand many other video players.

It is more likely your video card is old. Older video card can't play DVD on computer. If this is the case, then you have to get a newer video card.

no, it plays them. you need to get an application to be able to make a dvd-rom\nI reccomend Nero.\nit burns cds, mp3 cds, dvds, and more. but there are others if it is too expensive or non-compatible

load the driver onto your system and when you put the dvd into the drive it play automatically. Most of them are auto play.

If there is already a built in DVD drive, you only need an appropiate Player to play DVDs. I would suggest the Real Player, you can get it for free from http://www.real.com\n\nYou can see what type of CD/DVD you have. Right click on My Computer / Properties / Hardware / Device Manager / click on the + sign beside DVD/CD-Rom Drive and it will show up.
