Default Help Archiving to DVD in XP Pro

I back-up my data every month or two to DVD. Typically I've used Roxio Media
Creator but lately its giving me problems. Does XP Pro have a DVD Wizard
similar to the CD Wizard, a drag and drop feature that burns the data to the
DVD?

Appreciate any assistance.

Hi,

No, it doesn't, you have to use third party software. Personally, I find
Nero's easier to use than Roxio's, but it's really more a matter of personal
preference.

Windows XP cannot burn natively to DVD+/-R/RWs.

I like Nero much more than Roxio for burning CDs/DVDs.

The information is provided "as is", it is suggested you research for
yourself before you take any advice - you are the one ultimately
responsible for your actions/problems/solutions. Know what you are
getting into before you jump in with both feet.

No. It only has a CD copying capability.
