AAAHHH!!! I need your help friends, i'm after Power DVD but don't really want to pay for it...all i find when searching for it is a load of red herrings and some free "trial" downloads with limitations etc
I need to download a full version
Anyone know a link i can get it from? A free Boxing DVD to you, the person who successfully directs me...i'm desperate

Have you tried Kazaa or any other P2P network?

Do you specifcally need Power DVD? There are many other pieces of software which can play the same file types.

Hi guys, cheers for the suggestions i am getting downloading, i dont specifically need Power DVD it's just that i have it on one PC but need it on my other PC at work but have lost the disc. I only use Power DVD because it is so easy, as soon as i put a disc in it plays straight off but the other programmes i have used like DivX and such will not play and go into the hard drive and require you to bring up files and what have you....
Too complicated.
So basically anything that works as easily and simply as Power DVD will do nicely

Windows Media Player. All computers have this installed with windows. Pretty sure it plays DVDs.

Another easy to use DVD programme, is the real (one) media player. Easy to download (Christ, I did it).
