"Hi, my name is Dave Andrews, today I'm going to show you how to burn files to DVD using Windows Explorer. To begin, let's go to the computer. Click on start and open up my documents. Let's say these are the files that I want to burn to my DVD. To open up my burnable DVD files, let's click start, go to "my computer" and then find your DVD burner drive. Double click on it, and this opens a blank Explorer window. To copy the files, let's move this down a little bit, go back to the files I want to burn, select them, and let's just drag them onto the DVD window. If anything comes up asking you that you might be copying a file twice just say yes. As you can see these files have been added to our DVD drive to burn. Let's put the blank DVD in the burner. Now that we have the files on our DVD, just click write these files. Give it a name, it defaults to the date, we're going to leave it at that, select next, and it will begin the burning process. My name is Dave Andrews and I've just showed you how to burn files to a DVD using Windows Explorer."
