Power DVD works great. You have to buy it.

Subject: [Thinkpad] My thinkpad's DVD woes
My Thinkpad T20 does not recognize DVD movies. Mostly because it doesn't have the driver. I had bought it used and as such it didn't have an operating system or any preloads. I've installed Win 98 and downloaded most of the drivers. I've even gotten most of them working, but, there is one that eludes me.
I can put a CD rom in fine, I can put a DVD in and read data off of it. It just won't play. I have been all over IBM's website and I cannot find the driver for it.
Is there anybody out there that can possibly send a link or an e-mail with the drivers? Or perhaps somebody may upload it to an FTP server?
I desperately need help because this is frustrating. I can install software off of my Lord of the Rings DVD but I cannot watch the movie.
Thank you for your help.
Thinkpad T20 Specs:
P3 700 MHZ

If I can't get this problem solved, I'll be the same as this little guy. <IMG SRC="http://www.bitterfilms.com/rejected-4.jpg">
