Hi -
I am considering upgrading my 12XL505 laptop from Windows ME to XP. I
think I've found all the drivers/software I'll need to get it to work,
except for DVD player software. My laptop currently has Mediamatics
DVDExpress on it (came with the laptop) which doesn't seem to available any
more. Any suggestions? I assume that XP doesn't have it's own player?
Thanks -
Brian

Nope. You will have to get your own playback software. Cyberlink's Power DVD
is a good choice.
