burning a DVD (I'm kinda clueless)
 

OK I really wanted to burn a DVD. But I really have no clue which software I need to do it. Also I'm not too sure if I have adequite hardware. I know I dont have any DVD burning software though I can burn files and the like with my DVD drive that apparently can burn things (does that make it a DVD burner?). What kind of software could I download for at least an attempt at this? Thanks guys!

if you have the time, check out this website:

http://www.doom9.org/

its' more-or-less the defacto website for dvd backup and burning.

btw ... Nero will burn a dvd.

2sheds forgot to mention the other major site that is useful for burning dvd's http://www.videohelp.com/ (note you will almost always see these 2 sites mentioned with dvd burning).
You can always burn the trail version of nero to burn a dvd

Note: from your description, it sounds like you might just have a dvd/cd-rw drive and NOT a dvd burner. If you know what model the drive that you burn stuff with is, post it here (can usually be found as the device name that is used when you pick the drive for urning).

thanks, it's a DVD/CD-RW drive
