Hi,

I just got a cd-r/w, dvd-rw, cd-rom reader/writer. but I don't have the proper software to burn dvd's. Can anyone suggest some burn software or preferrably freeware. Thanks.

Hi Jojo!

For free software look here

Nero is the best for burning though IMHO.

Hello Jojo,
I'm surprised how come the software didn't come with the drive. Actually its a good thing too, because at least this way you can use whatever you want. You can try Cheetah Burner... one of my friends use it and they seem to be pretty happy with it. But I'm not sure about how good it actually is. Personally I too use Nero, because it came with my drive... and I'm too lazy to get anything else.

And of course, google is your friend when it comes to such things, but make sure you try and verify that the software does what it is supposed to do (i.e. it isn't malware or anything like that).

I like Ashampoo Burning Studio
version 5 is $20 and version 6 is $30
They rank among the top,regardless of the fact Nero or Roxio (Sonic) have their followers.

A Google search for "free DVD Burner" will give you lots

Have fun.
