puszysty | computers suck

I am going to kill something. I downloaded a dvd ripping program and a dvd editing program, trying to get a few MMC files up. One or the other, maybe both, are not working correctly, because every time I go to edit a file, it won't play correctly or just won't play at all. I have been at this trying to do something successfully for the last 3 hours, and I am seriously frustrated.
