    All,

    I just bought E1705 media center version and I try to burn DVD movie. Which software do I need to use to burn DVD? Does it come with Laptop? I installed Nero software, but the DVD is not readable after burning. I can burn the DVD movie using the same blank DVD repeatly. It is very strange. What should I do?

    I learned from this forum that it is best to order all the install software CD from dell? Which CD should I request?

    Thanks!

    Nero should be able to burn your movie unless it is a protected movie. If it is a protected movie, then we can not help you with this issue.

    Personally I like Nero better than Sonic - which is the software that normally comes with your laptop.

    Nero 6 is what you want to get.

    Unfortunately, that is the case for most movies. You will have to search elsewhere.
