As far as im aware, this is not possible for a number of reasons sorry.

If you look online, you can find some cheap DVD roms, from as little as £10.00.

Hope this helps

be safe

Can you play a DVD on your PC?

Most modern PC's will play DVD movies. However, you need to make sure your PC has a DVD drive. Some older or very low-end PC's have only a CD player, which will not play DVD's. Also, some laptop and notebook PC's save size and weight by omitting to have a built-in DVD drive. In this case you can plug an external DVD drive into a USB port.

How do you play a DVD using your PC?

AnswerYou need a DVD drive to be able to read a DVD.. not a simple CD drive..You can tell when you look at your PC, the tray that comes out where you put a CD/DVD in, it should be inscribed on it DVD, if it doesnt, it cannot play dvdsAny video program (WMP, Quicktime, Realplayer, DIVXplayer,etc..) can play a dvd.AnswerYou might have two DVD drives -- one for playing DVDs, and one for creating them. The one for playing DVDs is usually the top one. After you have put in the DVD, open one of the DVD player programs. There are the ones listed above, and there's also InterActual Player, PC-Friendly DVD Player, and Power DVD. My favorite is Power DVD, because it has subtitle options, even if the DVD itself doesn't have them. And it lets you rewind at different speeds, and it'll play in slow-motion.
