DVD's come in at least 2 styles. A regular store bought one has files on it that look like xxxxx.vob plus other files. other types made by friends won't be like that and will be 'more playable' using VLC player which I believe everyone would recommend. I personally don't play DVD's and thus can't help you much however there's going to be a software requirement for the DVD player to need for it to decipher how to manage the *.vob files on the DVD. Try opening Windows media player by itself and then open the CD / DVD by typing E: or D: in the Run window. Once the DVD is 'open' drag it to the WIndows media player. Or an alternate way is to open Windows player and then once knowing the E: or D: name of the DVD then 'open' Windows media player for the DVD and see if it will play it. During all of this if you can verify what kind of files, ie *.vob or other.. ie *.mp4, or *.avi files, this will help us to help you to play it. I suspect that you have a 'real' DVD from Blockbuster and are trying to play it. So the open Windows media player first, then try to open the D: or E: of the DVD should take you the furthest in your hopes to play it. Computers were not supposed to cause us more work. Be careful to avoid joy and happiness tied to computers. They're made for work and GD if they aaren't going to be used for that you're certainly going to H$LL. LOL j/k -- except I do think we've split off entertainment from work and computers don't care they cause us hurt and frustration in our quest for 'fun'. Andre

Do you still have the original unedited/unchanged file saved somewhere. You should work with a copy, never the original. Just like pictures. That way if you mess it up, you can make a new copy and start over. From the original file, change it to an .avi file. Then you can import it into Windows Movie Maker.

I don't know the preferred file format but I have no trouble with the .mov files. I don't know what version of windows you have but I have windows 7 and use windows live movie maker. I think it also works with windows vista. It has to be downloaded. You can get it here. I right click on .mov files from my canon camera and select open with > windows live movie maker. You can do some editing then export to facebook or youtube direct from the program. You can also save the file in different sizes (for computer, for email, etc.). It saves in .wmv format which will play about anywhere I think.

@Ronnie Hossain Pella was sued and settled the case for Pella ProLine casement, awning, or transom window which were manufactured between January 1, 1991, and December 31, 2009 (“Pella ProLine Casement Window”) As @millworkman said, most issues people having is improper installation, and for every complaint, we address when it comes to newly installed windows or doors or anything else for that matter 90% of the issues are related to improper installation or flashing applications, etc. Not sure what happened in your case since you didn't say what issues you experienced yes some company representatives do try to point the arrows at the installers but most of the time they're right because not many follow the manufacturer's guidelines and not only when it comes to windows I see that with backer board installations, with composite decking installations, etc. That being said, I'm not defending Pella window manufacturer, I never used Pella and never suggested using them, just telling you based on my general experience... If you take the best product out there and you do not follow the manufacturer's minimum installation requirements there will be issues. Good luck
