    I'm trying to help my friend use dvd decryptor on her computer. She has a dell laptop with a cd-r/rw/dvd drive on it. Alas, that's all I know about it. When she tries to use decryptor it gives her a message saying "device not ready: proper media not installed" or something to that effect. If anyone has any ideas, Me and my friend would be more than grateful. Thanks.

    Make sure she has the right drive picked in DVDD (if she's has more than one). That message usually means the drive can't recognize the media. Is this an original or back copy of a DVD?
    Make sure the firware is up to date also. Without the model # if it just lists cd-r/rw/dvd she may be able to only rip the movie to her hd but not copy it to a dvd. There's always VCD's if that's that case.

    Hi. If it's a fairly new Dell laptop, it's probably an LG GCC 4243N or a Samsung SN 324...

    If she does not have a DVD burner then there is no way for her to nurn the DVD. if she has a DVD Rom combo drive there mayb a way but the soloution is to put it on the hard drive only and also if she wants to put it on external media she has to put it into VCD format :)
