how to drag to dvd with XP?

I would like to backup 10's of 100's ... of personal pictures to dvd to
create one source for pics instead of 7 or 8 cds. How can I write these to a
dvd?

Using; Philips dvd + - RW dvd 8701as the source for files.
Windows XP SP3 explorer for the program...

What programs, whether third party or ..., can I use being a novice computer
user with some knowledge,minimal.
Any help is greatful!

Re: how to drag to dvd with XP?

Windows itself can't burn to a DVD but Nero and Roxio has software that can.
Nero:
http://www.nero.com/enu/index.html

Roxio:
http://www.roxio.com/

Roxio is easier to use.
Nero is harder to learn but most people will agree has some nice features.

Either will do the job.

Re: how to drag to dvd with XP?

Though Sonic was for Audio editing, could never get it from a local supplier
so I gave up (for now).

Glad I was of some help.

Re: how to drag to dvd with XP?

But if this "drag to DVD" software is using that packet-writing mode, it may
not be such a good idea. IOW, it might be better (much more reliable,
and much less potentially problematic), to instead run the program (Nero or
Roxio) directly, and then select the desired files, and then burn the entire
DVD all at once using the DAO (disk at once) mode. I don't think
"drag-to-DVD" does that, does it?
