    Backup Utility question...

    What do you guys/girls suggest to use to backup my files (pics, vids, etc) to a DVD? I tried using Nero but it won't work so now I'm looking into something else but not sure what is good and what isn't.

    if you're using releases of nero below 6.0 whenever you're in the program hit CTRL+R and that will open the "choose recorder" dialog box, and double click on your dvd burner instead of your cd burner.

    i dunno if this will work in the newer (lame) versions of nero, but the principle should be the same. also nero crushes roxio right in their face.

    Its a newer version of Nero..came with the PC. I found what you were talking about as well. I can either enter the Start Center or the Easy Start way and one has a drop down menu and the other has the tabs. I never realized those before until it got mentioned. Thanks for the help tho! :)
