    I was looking for a DVD player. I ask the salesman to help me find one. This is what he sold me . I can’t play dvd’s on it but I’ll keep it and I’m ok with it.

    It's a bit fussy to set up. You really need a dedicated DVD player program for it to work properly, AND you need to make very sure the DVD is set properly in the seat. It's easy for it to be slightly out of alignment, in which case it won't work.

    The Geek squad got it to work. Reads DVDs. Even European DVDs, which is handy as Samsung doesn't. Need to read up on such an item before purchase.

    A lot of new laptops don't have the cd feature anyone and this is a great alternative if you still need to use a cd player.
