Viewing DVDs on any Dell computers in the Main Library is a little trickier than it should be. Below are the steps to view a DVD on one of these machines:.

(If the desktop/laptop doesn't have a DVD drive you will need to check one out at the Main Access Services Desk)

  1. Insert DVD into the DVD drive in computer. (If using a Portable DVD drive, attach to to your laptop first then insert the DVD.)
  2. Click on the windows start icon.
  3. Select This PC
  4. Double click on the DVD icon
  5. Right click on the DVD icon and select "Play with VLC player." Should have a traffic cone icon.
  6. The DVD should play!
