According to that forum post that you linked to, you run the "video decoder checkup utility" which tells you "the name of your decoder file".

You then "search your hard drive for that file".

Then you open the folder that contains the file that you found.

It is the contents of that folder that you opened that needs to be copied somewhere else. This is because when you uninstall the DVD software the found file and the folder that contains it, is expected to disappear.

For Windows Vista, have you looked at the accessibility options? http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/windowsvista/features/details/accessibility.mspx

Can you explain to me what the difference is between "closed caption" and "subtitles"? :confused
