You will have to rip the section first. I've never done it myself, but http://elliottback.com/wp/archives/2005/12...dvd-a-tutorial/ looks to have a good and simple tutorial.

You will probably then need a program to get the specific clip you want. Windows Movie Maker comes free on XP and Vista (I believe... could be wrong) and is a pretty intuitive program to use. I've used it a few times myself for specific clips.

Google for 'Virtual Dub' or 'TMPGEnc'. They're pretty good free programs to cut video clips up once you've ripped them.

You may also want to download the K-Lite codec pack - http://www.free-codecs.com/index.htm especially as you may need to compress the video if you're short of disc space.
