Playing a DVD Video in Your Classroom PC
Many faculty members report problems when trying to play a DVD Video in their classroom PC. The key is to use the right software for the job. Watch the video below to learn how to launch your DVD Video using PowerDVD software.

PowerDVD software is designed for use with DVD Videos, not DVD-ROMs, CD-ROMs, or audio discs. If you still have problems, please call our office at ext. 5030 from your classroom phone so we can assist you and get you up and running quickly. And always remember to log-off the PC and turn off the projector at the end of your class.
