- writing data to recordable DVDs
- Posted by Shaun on January 7th, 2006
I have a DVD-RW, NVIDIA decoder, WinXP and want to copy data files to
recordable DVDs. What software should I use? Preferably something that
integrates with existing Win XP software, such as a plug-in to WMP or ever My
Computer. Is there such a product?

Didn't your DVD-RW come with a software CD?

No is the short answer ... the drive was autodetected.

WinXP has no native ability to read or write DVDs and will just see it as a
CD-RW.. You will need a third party program. I use Nero, but with any luck
someone will suggest a free program
