    Hey Thinkpadders.

    so I did the clean install and didn't write down which DVD software to you. Does anyone know what the default software is? Mediamatics DVDExpress/InterVideo WinDVD and where to get it?

    thanks,
    gravie

    Intervideo WinDVD
    RecordNow
    Windows Media



    Put the SWTOOLS folder for the drivers on a CD before you do your fresh install. It has the drivers.

    I personally use VideoLAN though I do not watch a lot of DVDs.
