This guy can not be serious ;-) If you are then here are some very good directions for you please follow..
1. Click on Start (Bottom Left of Screen)
2. Click on shut down (Actually select shut down)
3. Pack up your computer
4. Now donate it to goodwill
Thats it.... :-)
Thanks Mantel but I seriously don't think he got the hint LOL

just a thought to those who want to label their dvds, if you are ok with coloring them and making them pretty yourself, then Fujifilm sells DVD-R's with white surfaces so you can decorate them. They work great too:)

Understoo...but which side is the daa side. The one with the name and information on or the blank side?
It's the side without any markings on it. The opposite side from the Text, Picture, Imprint,or just like the DVD from the store, the bottom of the disk if it is in your DVD Player.
Now, is this thread for real or what!?!?!? I think this one takes the cake over the paper towel in the microwave comment about removing the tracking chip.
Let's see, we had drama, sex, (doofy pic's), humor, (bbmayo,Rotary, Jim_Dandy, etc.,) and still came back to a tough discussion about which side is up. Actually roger3125, I think if you use the pic's of Doofy's sig as a visual, you will always remember that the print side is UP!!! And the DATA side is the bottom!!! <G>
One thing that still puzzles me is that this just feels like a complete setup, the thread title, stating the "just a newbie here and on the PC", etc., just something that's not quite right or smells fishy...

roger3125, do yourself a favor, bub, and just read some forum topics. All you're doing posting questions like these is, as they say in boxing, leading with your chin. 10 minutes of looking around this site and others like videohelp.com and you won't need to ask any of this (and you'll not be setting yourself up for abuse, either).

I remember my first cd. I was afraid the laser would burn a hole through the player and find someway to my eye. As for the right side to play or label, don't get me started. I ended up making a wall of damaged cds. Looks pretty cool now though. i find this image interesting.

MrClub...I appreciate your thoughts but, beleive it or not, there still remains newbies in this "computor world" we live in. I was always taught in school "There is no such thing as a 'dumb question'" I am a retired HS math teacher...if you came to me and asked what a googleplex is would I make fun of you?
I would not, nor would I assume to know your background fo mathematics. As a gentleman I would simply answer your question...as as they said on Seinfeld "Be done with it"

I use battery acid & a radial arm drill to remove the tracker chip, then fashion a repair with wattle & daub. Blockbusters have never found out yet!
My media only has the hole on one side. This stops you putting it in the wrong way! Then you know what side to mark on. (sorry)
There is no such thing as a dumb question, but there can be a dumb answer.
Very dumb if I reply.

Another dumb question, if you guys don't mind. Can NeroExpress in addition to copying to a CD also list what is on that CD. I had Roxio's Easy CD/DVD Creator and it was able to do that. Actually it printed a Cover and on the back of the cover it listed the names of the files. Kinda neat I thought. I just didn't like Roxio

Roger, don't take my advice the wrong way. I wasn't saying you were asking dumb questions, I was merely trying to save you from abuse by recommending that you look at some of the many threads on this site and others which already deal with these topics. Some here get a kick out of mocking newbies. I don't and was merely trying to save you some hassle. In any event, I apologize.

Roger sly is right you question is way off topic and is actually one of the rules here at AD 8. Don't reply with an off-topic comment/question -- instead start a new thread. and some newwbie's deserve mocking hell now that I think about some of us Seniors deserve it too LOL :-)

Mrchub - your apology is accepted and comments forgotten. As a newbie I am learning the rules of the road and as suggested I will open another - what that thing called?
See what I mean?
Thanks guys!

WEll thanks to you guys I will soon be heavily invested in software. Got a question...but I need an HONEST answer.
From reading the posts it appears DVD X Copy is the best choice for copying DVDs. I know I can buy Platinum for $150 on this site and I beleive DVD X Express for $89...but I've seen the same on Ebay for like $15 to $30 with activation guarnanteed by PayPal...so I have two questions...1. Whats the difference between Platinum (or Gold) DVD X Copy and DVD X Express? and 2. Is there some reason for me not purchasing one on Ebay for less?
Thanks guys. I appreciate your help

Dont do it!!!! That company went under a couple of months back.. Support is almost non exsistant and the program is outdated and wont work on the newer encryption... Save you money.. I am not sure where you have been reading about Xcopy at, but it must be some old stuff... Better combination and easier is DVDCopy3 and AnyDVD by far the best IMO. If you don't want to buy anything you can use DVD Shrink And DVD Decrypter and I have guides on using those at my website (Link is in my signature)..

Roger, I dont know what posts you have read but you were looking at the wrong ones. Previously bbmayo recommended his site http://home.comcast.net/~bbmayo/index.html Last time I checked his first link says to use dvddecrypter and dvd shrink. DvdXcopy can be had for free but even then it isnt worth the space on your harddrive. You need to spend time looking at the forum and at the guides given thats what there for.

Thanks..I guess it really is true you can easily get ripped off on line. again thanks for the warning. Sooo If I, a newer than new newbie wanted to copy say a commercial movei rented from Blockbuster, for example...not that I ever would you understand...could I do that using Shrink or the other one you mentioned and of course the big question, is it really easy?

shrink works on most movies except with some of the colombia tristar movies ie; resident evil2, little black book, and others. Those that have the newer encryption need to be ran through dvddecrypter. Once you learn dvd copying you will soon be trying everything else so remember to search the forum for any solution to a new problem, chances are someone already fouled up and got the answer to your sitch. I also suggest that you learn more about pc's in general because alot of problems can be caused by different settings. First thing you need to understand is what DMA is. Also if you get a "crc" error chances are it is a dirty or scratched disc. I learned most everything I know about computers from screwing them up. Before you buy anything ask around so you dont waste your money or time. BTW welcome to AD.

Yes and Yes :-)
Just follow a guide and you will be on your way. I made my guides as easy as possible. If you can read and look at pictures pointing at exactly what to do then yes even you can do it.. LOL :-)

Do indeed and I'm working it like an old timer. Now trying to figure out how to get Nero to print the list of files on a cover. Directions say you can but I can't figure it out.
Thanks for keeping up with me
