Why don't you re-rip your original? Probably the burn of your first copy didn't go all that well...

I don't think there is a need to rip. Can't you just open the dvd and drag all the files to the HD, since it is not protected anymore? Maybe I'm wrong but it's worth a shot right?

Correct - There is no encryption on the files after the first rip.

Fair chance there'll be read errors still though - If a ripping prog can't read it I don't like the chances of windows. Make sure that the disc is absolutely free from dust and scratches and possibly try a different DVD-ROM at your mates place or something.

Good advice.

If you have a CD/DVD cleaner, try using that on it, even if the DVD looks fine to your eyes.

try spraying some pledge on the disk and wiping it down. works for me
