Go into Add/Remove and look though the list of installed applications

Intervideo WinDVD, Cyberlink PowerDVD, Sonic CinePlayer etc and remove whatever is there.

It sounds like an older version of WinDVD is present as the prompt to uninstall the other decoder is unusual.

There are also good free alternatives like MPC & VLC.
