djtrenowden Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I'm finding it impossble to save some picture files from a folder onto a dvd.In my pictures i have highlighted the desired photos, then selected "move selected items" and then the D. drive (cd drive), once i've clicked move a screen stating D:/ is not accessible , incorrect function, pops up..the dvd-r is blank so does anyone know a better way? Or what i'm doing wrong?Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doug Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 You will probably get some expert advice shorty but what I think you are trying can only be done with a formatted read/write DVD - much like a floppy. Whether these can be played in a conventional DVD reader - I don't know. To produce a permanent DVD you need to use DVD burning software e.g. Nero. Just a few thoughts to think on.

rong Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 You could try selecting copy instead of move and see if that works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boris Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 I do not think that XP has native DVD burning ability - only for CDs ????See :-http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/s...eptember16.mspxat the bottomDo you want to record onto blank DVD disks using a recordable DVD drive? Windows XP can read and play back DVDs, but it can't record them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andsome Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 I use Nero, and always drag and drop my pictures. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-pops- Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Do you really need to put your pictures on a DVD?You can get a huge number of pictures on to a single DVD - enough to bore anyone the death several times over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
