Thanks for your time.
What kind of file extensions does your videos have?
Can these files be played with Windows media Player?

You can always re-record any videos using screen capture software even the free ones.

As for lossy DRM removal software, I know about Tunebite Premium only.

Anyway all the programs on our web-site are free or free to try so at least you don't have to buy anything before trying.

I could be wrong, but I don't think AVI specification allows DRM protection.
If you can't play them, try to install necessary codecs. You may use K-Lite Codec Pack, for example. Every DRM removal software I know requires playable files.

Another way if you have an older Analogue DVD recorder with a HDD. You could back up the disk onto the HDD and then write it back to a disk. In other word by taking it from Digital to Analogue the DRM is no longer present.

You can use either a DVD recorder or capture cards:
Capture from screen when a screen recorder doesn't work

If your graphics card has a component video out, you will be able to record even HD videos.
