Don't use all caps. That implies you're shouting.
If you're trying to copy a dual layer DVD, you can't do it with only DVD Decrypter. If the original is single layer you can just select your DVD drive to read from, open the Mode menu, go to options and select Read, click the folder icon in the middle of the window to select a destination location and filename, and click the green button to rip. When it's finished, go back to the Mode menu, go to ISO, and select write. Then select your burner and click the green arrow again.
If it's a dual layer disc, you should probably start by downloading DVD Shrink and learning how to use it. You can either compress to fit on a blank or reauthor to make a movie only backup (or a combination of both). Once you get Shrink down, if you want to do other things, like stripping extras to avoid compression and keep working menus, you could look at some other programs that do that, but I always advise people to start with Decrypter and Shrink until they feel comfortable with them.

It means the drive you were saving the backup to doesn't have enough space to save it. It takes 4.37GB of free space for a DVD backup. How much free space do you have on the destination drive?

CALMDOWN,
Try to keep related questions in a single thread, multi-posting is another no-no here :) vurbal and I are essentially answering the same question from you and it helps us to give better advice if we know what advice you've already been given. We're happy to help, you just have to help us too.

Calmdown you need to post system specs or it's going to be at best, a crapshoot for those who want to assist you.
Try to be as comprehensive as possible.

Calmdown, Calmdown, afterdawn has several excllent guides on how to burn backups. All the software that you need is also available for free. All you need is a copy of DVD Shrink (having a copy of Decrypter is not a bad idea either. This assumes that you already have software for burning. Nero is best since it interfaces with DVD Shrink. Follow the link below to go to a guide.

Calmdown, I've noticed that you're posting the same request on more than one thread in the forum. Please don't because then you have more than one person essentially answering the same question and it is a waste of their time. Especially if the information that you've provided is split between the 2 threads. Below is a link to the forum rules, take note of line 3.

Hmmm ... thats a pretty small so called hard drive. Try doing this ... eject any disks from you external burner. Then open "my computer" and see how much space is available on you D drive.

Calmdown, you do know that you need a new blank for every movie. The second quote, is this your burner? If so those numbers usually implies a burned movie.

You will probably find that d:970mb free space,4.18gb used space is a built in partition made by dell as a recovery partition
DO NOT SAVE FILES HERE IF IT IS THE CASE
Also you should have these drives c: = hard drive
d: = recovery
e: = cdrw
f: = dvd+-r
although f: i think depends on what usb port you have plugged into
To free up space run: disc clean up (start>programmes>accessories>system tools>disc cleanup)
add remove programmes (start>settings>control panel>add remove programmes)
only you know what you dont use
also Quote: I BURNT 4 DVDS FINE WITH SHRINK
make sure you have deleted those movies after burning

Calmdown, it's hard to say which letter was designated for your burner. Best way to tell is it will be under devices with removable storage, and dvd-rw.
Also go through your D drive. Any files you wanna keep transfer them to your C drive. Then just delete that partition.

real good idea @flip218
DO NOT delete d: partition or remove any files. It contains your winxp install, and all drivers for your computer
