Transferring personal dvd to a computer file?

Could someone please tell me how to transfer a personal dvd (wedding dvd) to
a file on Windowns Vista? We want to burn another DVD off of this one using
the computer. Are we far fetched? Thanks for your help...Cheryl

================================
For the purpose you describe...there is no
reason to copy the DVD files to your hard
drive.

If you have a DVD burner...it should include
software that will allow you to Copy a DVD.

Anyway...here's some info on ripping a DVD:

hey Cheryl, I have a similar concern, maybe someone out there can answer this
one: How do I get my music videos from my DVD, and get them downloaded to my
MP3 player?

Highlight all the files on the DVD and drag and drop them into a folder on
your computer. That gets them to the hard drive. After that depends on your
particular type of mp3 player.

The same process as above probably works here, too. But there should be a
method to just copy your DVD, assuming you have a burner.
