Okay.

1. DVDs. To my knowledge you can't burn to their full capacity although you can go to 800 megs. Correct?

2. 2 CD Recorders. Is it just me or does Windows XP not support using 2 drives for CD writing? This gets kind of irritating because I have them.

1. XP doesn't support DVD burning, Vista will.

2. You can only use 1 cd-burner using the built in CD-writing tools. You can use more if you install 3rd party set twere.

1. XP may not support DVD burning, but usually if you buy a PC with a DVD burner, then you get a third party tool to help you burn the discs.

As far as the 800M limit, I'm not so sure.  I have a DVD burner on my Compaq (with XP Home), but have not tried it yet.  I plan to try it soon, though, and I'll post back on this thread if somebody else doesn't answer your question first.

Here's a Movie Maker article about burning DVDs...but it is from 2002.

Usually some high-powered software title that entices customers, followed by an under-emphasised "Lite Edition" qualifier in small font.

1. And you understand I mean data DVDs, right?

2. Where can I find the nearest free CD burning software that integrates as closely with the shell as the XP built-in Roxio stuff?

But Nero is not FREE as long as the OP isn't going to by a new DVD writer... Tongue Out

Ok, what's the closest-integrated 3rd party DVD burning software to the shell I can get? Basically my last post but without the necessity of being free.

why do you want to be integrated to the shell, Nero Devil is the best tool you can get.
