You can get a decoder from here

and play your DVDs in Windows Media Player.

Ryan,

They are not free but you can get PowerDVD for $3 - $4 including shipping
here: http://www.surpluscomputers.net/store/main.aspx

There are licensing fee involved in using codecs; so you probably won't find
free decoder software. Even one I use for my version of Linux requires a
small payment to cover the licensing fees.
