You can play VCDs with Windows Media Player. Insert the VCD in your CD-ROM
or DVD-ROM and browse to the MPEGAV folder and double-click on the .dat file
and associate it with Media Player and open it with that.
To play a VCD with menus and still pictures use WinDVD or PowerDVD, insert the
VCD and just hit Play.
Use a low resolution, like 640x480, on the monitor when watching a VCD to get best quality.
