Writing disc image files

    I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this but it seems like the closest one to the topic.
    I have some disc image files on my laptop (Dell Inspiron 1545), and I'm trying to copy them onto discs. I'm no tekkie so this is a bit of a mystery to me I just inserted a blank disc (DVD+rw according to the packet) and then clicked the burn button. Thats all fine except the file doesnt seem to be going on, the progress bar just doesnt move...Is this just a slow process or am I doing something incredibly wrong/stupid? :o:(

    what exactly are you burning... whats the extension of the file you want to put onto media?

    The file extention is .iso
    Thanks for your reply, it turns out the process was just painstakingly slow it took 2 hours for it to complete.

    two hours...

    what speed are you burning at.. /?!

    Burning takes about 5 mins for me

    Hmmm that is strange, that could be an exaggeration on my part but it certainly wasn't 5mins...It took a while anyways but got there in the end. Thanks for relpying!!
