If all you want to do is copy the .vob files onto your pc then just drag
an=
d
drop them and use PowerDVD or something like that to play them (powerDVD
lets you choose the location of your DVD).  If you want to copy them onto a
CD then that is a different story and needs a lot more explanation (if this
is what you want to do then tell me and I will write a more comprehensive
email explaining what to do)

Hope this helps
