mrgreek 350 Report post Posted April 12, 2011 I've got a weird problem... I'm using Windows XP and for some reason I can't copy files to a DVD Rom, but I have no problem burning a CD Rom. Before anyone asks, I have a DVD Rom that is re-writable and recordable. When I burn to a CD Rom, I just simply copy and paste to the CD/DVD Rom drive and then select "write these files to the CD/DVD Rom" When I try and burn to a DVD Rom, it just hangs and it says that there is a problem with the files I want to copy onto the DVD Rom. I was able to copy onto a DVD with no problem in the past, not sure what I've done now to make that impossible. Many thanks, MrGreek :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You will need to get a third party program. Try ImgBurn, it is free and very good program. http://www.imgburn.com/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
