VLC Player can play DVDs, and a very wide variety of other audio/video file formats. The codecs are all built-in to the player, and I've yet to find a file it can't play:

+1 for VLC media player from me too.

Thanks for the suggestions, don't mean to be awkward, but i am running Windows ME and VLC Media Player won't play DVD's on ME (known problem) and AVS doesn't support ME.
Any others?0 -
MediaPlayer Classic might be what you want. It's free and has a Windows Millenium version:

Look for the "mpc98me6490.zip" file.0 -

I agree with VLC player being an awesome video player.
However I didnt know that it cant play DVD's and it has on occasion not played video files for me. Although I forget the type of files.0
