you guys sound like charlie browns teacher to me.......wawawawawa.........like i said i am at the age where computers werent readily available when i was growing up, guys a few years younger than me know all about them but what i do here is basically the extent of my computer skills......

so how do i find out if i have this stuff......the computer was built for us as a gift from her uncle who strangley enough is younger than i am yet writes college textbooks (not full time) for computer classes........

goto My Computer and look at your drives....do any of them say CD-RW?

or DVD R/RW,

Or you can look on the outside and see if the cd drive says DVD R/RW or DVD / CD R/W

Once you know that, we can help you with what you can burn.

As for programs I use Nero 6 ultra, and I can burn about anything. If you want a copy let me know.

Oh if you want to burn DVDs, we need to make sure your computer can handle it.

Well since I have you, here is something else that might help speed up your computer. If you have any questions about what to do, and not to do let me know.

actually if it has XP home and it has some sort of DVD/CD burner you should be able to put a blank disc in and it should read it and ask how you want to burn it.

im sure nero 7 is great, ive been using nero 6 ultra as well for over a year and its fine. I would go to walmart or best buy and look for "NERO" it will probably be a red box.
