I want to back up some of the crap on my hard drive to a DVD+R to free up some space, but I'm not sure how to do this. Do I need a program to back up some of this old stuff up. Do I have to format the blank DVD or anything, like you do with a CD-R. Some help would be great.
Thanks, Bobbie

hi

i have never formated a cdr first i just burn, but anyhoo's lets move on...

ok you can use nero to get your data onto dvdr (it is data? and not a film copy?)

use tab button DVD-ROM (ISO) and you will have an explorer window to darg files from right to left window pane. (keep an eye on the file size indicator at the bottom till you see its full!)
