    I was doing a clean up of the computer with "Remove programmes" and by mistake I deleted the DVD decoder on the laptop resulting in my unable to play DVD's

    For some reason I dont have a CD for same software.

    What should I do?

    Try VLC. It's free and will play most media types including DVDs.

    (Not HD-DVDs though :()

    Another vote for VLC. Perhaps a system restore could get the other decoder back.

    If you're still having trouble, download the K-Lite codec pack, or the CCCP codec pack. Both of them will let you play DVDs with media players such as WMP.

    The VLC will have to do.
