Yes, if you use timecode CD's then you can. You would need:
- VirtualDJ Professional: http://www.virtualdj.com/buy/index.html
- A suitable 4-in/4-out ASIO sound card such as Native Instruments Audio 4 DJ.
- Some timecode CD's that you can create yourself using the audio file on the following page: http://www.virtualdj.com/products/timecode/cd.html

Yes, with timecode CD you will be able to scratch in the same way you would if you were playing an ordinary audio CD.
You would connect the CD players via RCA cables to the ASIO sound card inputs, and then RCA cables from the sound card outputs to your mixer.
Setup details can be found in the user manuals ( http://www.virtualdj.com/wiki/PDFManuals.html ):

ESI Maya44 USB is probably the cheapest.
Alternatively, the ASIO sound card built into the Hercules DJ Console RMX or older MK2 can be used for timecode (And you can use the console itself at the same time for triggering effects, etc.) These consoles allow you to upgrade to VirtualDJ Pro at a discount (More discount for RMX.)
A decent good quality card such as Native Instruments Audio 4 DJ is strongly recommended.

Unfortunately they cannot be used as MIDI controllers for DJ software
Although they do have MIDI ports, these only allow another device (E.g: MIDI keyboard) to control the CDX or send MIDI clock signal to allow synchronisation with another CDX, a drum machine, etc.
They do not send MIDI for buttons, etc. which is required for controlling software. The only way to use them with VirtualDJ is via timecode CD.
If you are looking for something similar that is a MIDI controller and can directly control the software, take a look at the Denon DN-S3700.

Just checking to make sure because I get my System Tomorrow and I want to make sure that I can do it.
Also Im using:
Windows 7 Ultimate, Laptop
2 gb Ram
2 320 Internal Harddrives
1.80 GHz
512mb Graphics Card (only Audio Mixing)
Also if you could please let me know which OS (XP, Vista, Windows 7) is this software best used for.
Thanks in advance.

To use timecode, you will need to purchase a 4-in/4-out ASIO sound card as advised above.
The CDX is not MIDI capable and has no built-in sound card. The DM 1002 MKII is also not MIDI capable and also does not have a built-in sound card.
Suitable cards include Native Instruments Audio 4 DJ, Hercules DJ Trim, ESI Maya44 USB.
Windows XP or 7 is the best O/S to use. If using Windows 7, please check that the sound card and any other hardware you will be using has Windows 7 compatible drivers available.
