DVD Decoder

I just re-installed Windows XP, and cannot play DVD's as I need a "DVD Decoder" I cannot find this, does Dell supply this as when I first got my Inspiron 6400 it was able to play DVD's so I assume it is somewhere, if it is indeed supplied what disk is it on, and/or is it available to be downloaded from the Dell website?

Dell installs a DVD Decoder on all new systems.  If you do not have the disc
and are still within the warranty period, you can request the disc.

Is the disk a seperate one or is it on with the "Drivers and Utilities" disk? I couldn't find the DVD decoder on that but I could of just missed it...

Look for the disk with Cyberlink's PowerDVD on it.  That's what Dell includes with the 6400/E1505.

I, too, trying to view DVDs on my Dell (Dimension);  I found the disk "For reinstalling CyberLine PowerDVD Software, but it says it is already installed.  However, I cannot view DVDs.  Should I try re-installing this disk?
