DVD Shrink to copy them onto your comp (google it)
You'll need a DVD to DivX(or other format) Converter
Search for one on www.download.com

Have you used DVD Shrink to backup a DVD before?
If not its pretty easy - Just click open disc, choose the disc you want, After it analyzes it, click on backup!, choose your hard drive folder & bob's your uncle.
This will leave you with a folder of DVD files (It'll be pretty big)
After that you'll need to get another program to convert it to DivX/Xvid/mpeg etc.
I don't know of any good ones myself

This one is free & looks OK.
You might need to get a codec to be able to play it in Win media player.
Oh and the latest version of DVD Shrink is 3.2

EDIT: or you can follow the link in the post above
