Default DVD player on W98

The PowerDVD 5.0, is it an expensive item? My thought
is..when I had W95 on here, DVD's would play. Gateway
sent me one and it worked. NOW with W98, no way! If I
put the W95 disk in.....can I download it from that?
OR..will it totally screw up my system? Someone did W98
for me, and I don't have the disk. The Interactual
Player..where is that? Can it be downloaded on line?
Sooooo many questions for someone that knows NOTHING!
thanks in advace!

Try PowerDVD 5.0 for playing movies on DVD if you want to

buy such a
program.

Many movie DVDs autorun Interactual Player 2.0 for

installation. You have
to allow it to install for a free movie DVD player on

your PC.

If the PC was running Win95, I would suspect that the

cpu, memory, video
chipset/card, and input/output on that PC would have

trouble handling video
display from a recent movie on DVD. Probably choppy at

best.

If you did not add a physical DVD player (this is not

software) or DVD
burner, you will never be able to play a DVD on your PC.
