If so, I believe the actual video will be in a large file (or files) with the extension .DAT and you should be able to just copy it over to the PC, and then either play it manually in something like VLC or rename it to .MPG and play it in any player that does Mpeg1.
If it's from a camcorder, it could also be some semi-proprietary format. If you're lucky, it will be .MOD files which are just another renamed MPeg (with a few options missing, for example if it's widescreen if you just rename it to .MPG it will probably play as 4:3 - google on SDCopy for a good program to fix that.)
Late response here on my part but to answer your question... the cd in question was burned off of someone else's computer and handed to me. It's of a soccer team we run and I want to put the game footage from that game permanently on my computer. Movie Maker let's me watch it and chop it up but it won't ever let me save it, super fustrating as this should be such a simple process... or so I thought.
