    How to burn a dvd


    Hi There-

    I am new to the forum and hoping you can help me! Same old story, hp
    directs me to microsoft, microsoft directs me back to hp.

    What I am trying to do is to burn a movie in a dvd format. I am using
    movie maker (which has it's own issues) and cannot do it from there.
    When I save the movie to my computer and try to do it from the windows
    media player it keeps asking me to insert a blank, writable dvd - even
    though I just did!

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks so much for the help!

    Liz
