Answer 1

for all Windows even XP you need a software DVD decoder to play DVDs, you can get free ones at tucows.com or other places, you should have received a disk with the DVD drive with a DVD playing software on it, they come with that software otherwise the drive is no good to people for wanting to watch DVDs on their new drive

Answer 2

You just need DVD player Software,
which you can find fee from net.
Or may be it is included in the CD which you have received with your DVD drive.

if you already tried all this then u have to reinstall driver of DVD player and try the same again.

if you have problem afer this also then u can mail me your problem on [e-mail]

best of luck

Pure and simple you need to get DVD player software, such as NERO. I'm sure you can find some free one like DivX on the internet. Google it my friend.
