Windows Media player should play VCD's, you only may have to locate .DAT file for him (that's really usual MPEG-1 video format inside it).

do what Priit said.

The file is usually called Music01.dat or Avseq01.dat. The are located in a file that is called mpgav (I think). Just open the .dat file inside of Windows Media Player and it should work.
