I have a dvd in my collection that I want to be able to watch on my computer, without having to use the dvd. I talked to a smart computer guy and he said to just rip it to the hard drive. How do I do that?

If I try to copy the entire dvd folder it just comes up with an error message that tells me that it can't copy the file.

Most commercial dvds have some kind of copy protection, so you can't copy them to a hard drive. You will need a program that break the protection and rip (copy) it to your hard drive. Get the Free ripper here : http://www.ripit4me.org >>>>>>>READ the guides and faqs first before doing anything

Use DVD Shrink...It'll give you just the video, and takes up less space.
