DVD-R Compatibility with Other Systems

Old Dog
Hey everybody, my first time here. Got a DVD-R/W drive for Christmas. Works great. The problem is that none of what I put on these DVD-R disks can be read from any other computer in my house except the one where the drive is installed.

k9addict
Ok, so I bought the Sims 2 and it requires DirectX 9. 0c. The installer says that DirectX 9. 0c is on the CD, but it won't download. A window pops up and tells me to download DirectX 9. 0c from Microsoft.
