they say you should use DVD decrypter to rip a DVD but why can't i just copy the files off the DVD to my harddrive? I have anyDVD running so I don't have to worry about encryption, so why can't i just copy and past rather than use DVDdecrypter?

My internet constantly cuts out and as i`m not a computery person i`ve no idea how to fix it,i`ve followed the instructions on fixing it,turning the router off,checking all cables then switching back on and it`ll be fine for a while then do it again,this happens constantly throughout the day!

Is there any way i can fix it permanently?I switch my computer off at night so it`s not left running,advice appreciated thanx.

I need to try to use a boot disk on a friends HP desktop but it is one of the Slimline ones & they say that it does not have a 3.5" drive.
How can I do the boot disk in this case as it will not boot up on it's own for some reason?

Can I use a CD or flash drive in place of the 3.5" drive?
