windows media player can't play DVDs even with codec installed

windows media player can't play DVDs even with codec installed I've got an old laptop (running WinXP) that my wife wants to use to watch DVDs on. Windows Media player didn't have any codecs installed so I installed PowerDVD SE (for Windows XP) as linked from the WMP online help.

Just install VLC, it plays just about anything. It's a popular player, no spam or anything.
