First, I just want to say that if this is in the WRONG BOARD, I'm SORRY.  I'm not really sure if the problem is with my Windows or the drivers or hardware or whatnot so I'm putting this here. Like I said, if it's in the wrong spot, I'm sorry.

Ok, my OS is Windows XP and my D: drive is a DVD/CD-RW. A few months ago I uploaded some video from a family reunion from a memory card. I'm not really sure what kind of disks I would need. But about a month ago I bought some DVD-RW disks, but those didn't seem to work. Then someone told me I should get CD-R disks, but when I was prompted to put that disk in, it said there was no disk in the drive. Did I get the wrong disks again? If you need to know anymore about my computer to help, let me know. I'm still kinda new at this. And thanks to anyone that can help.

Oh, I have Nero OEM Suite on my computer, if that helps too.I'm pretty new to this to, so i'd like some comfirmation from a guru, but it SOUNDS like you've got a DVD player and not a writer. Your CD-RW is a writer, you need to right click on the icon goto to properties click on 'recording' then click on 'enable CD to record' this will help you to record using your CD-R disks.

I'll just RUN through again...

Goto My computer right click on your DVD/CD-RW icon and click on Properties then click on Recording then tick the box that says Enable CD recording on this drive and see if that works

Let me know how youve gone onI went to where you said, but when I came to the Enable CD recording on this drive box, it was already checked.

Thanks for trying to help me though
Instead of using Nero can you go to the folder where your video is and in the left-hand panel it should say Copy all items to cd click on this and follow the prompts.

Good Luck.
