Help with dvd copy

Well i have a dvd of a few races and would like to save it to my computer so i can put it on youtube or something, how do i do that?

I can put it in the computer and play the dvd in windows media player, but it will not let me rip it like an audio cd. Is there an easy way to do this?

I'm decent with computers, just not that into them to know all the features yet.

Did you put the disc in the burn drive? I know some computers have 2 different ports for cd/dvd.

Is the dvd a burnt dvd, or did you buy it already made from a store? I have a hp as well and I dont have any issues, Ill try it right now.

Ok, put the disc in and click out of what pops up to run it with another program. Go to start>computer>click on cddrive. the videos should pop up seperately, then drag them from the cd to a file on your computer, this worked for me.
