That's a bit strange - from the klite decoder pack website:
"Windows Vista already contains its own MPEG-2 and DVD decoder, so you don't need to install one."

Maybe that only applies to the better versions? Not sure why you are asking this question here. Do you own a Roxio product? EMC 9 includes Cineplayer which also installs a DVD codec.

EMC 9.1 will install and run in any version of Vista, however, check the graphics in the laptop first as that's a critical component. If it is a dedicated chipset with its own RAM, then no problem - if it's S3 Vierge or some of the Intel chipsets using shared RAM you may have trouble with VideoWave and MyDVD
