    I need to let you all know from the start that i am next to a dumbo when it comes to computers so here is my problem.

    I bought a new computer and it is a windows 7 home 64 bit. I installed a dvd burner called DVD-Cloner 2013 as i found this is very simple to use. My problem is it reads the disc ok then asks for a blank DVD.

    When i put in the blank disc the AutoPlay comes up and gives me a choice and none of the choices to burn are my DVD-Cloner 2013.

    Is there a way i can add this to the blank disc list in AutoPlay. The crazy part is it lists my burner in the section that allows the reading.

    It is trying on DVD-5.

    The only choices i have for burning is burn files to disc:
    with Windows Explorer
    with Windows DVD Maker
    with Power 2 Go

    and they confuse me as too many choices

    So is there anyway a simple guy can add his burner to Blank DVD please

    any help will be appreciated :confused

    I would select Do nothing when the autoplay appears.
    Next in the program listing select your burning program, still keeping the non-blank DVD in the tray.
    You should then see something like the screens here

    press the middle play button and wait for the program to first read the DVD, followed usually by asking you to insert a blank DVD and then last writing to the blank DVD.

    Thank you for the reply plodr and i went thru your instructions by selecting Take No Action in the blank dvd space.

    I inserted the disc to copy and it went thru and read it no problem. It ejected the original disc and i inserted it again but the auto play did not open (maybe because I told it to Take No ASction, I don't know) but i went into it manually and DVD Cloner 2013 did not appear as a choice in the burn disc and the computer kept ejecting the original disc.

    In other words nothing has changed for me.

    If you have any further suggestions please feel free to express them as i am getting more frustrated.

    Regards

    Why?
    After the burning programs read the disk and copies the contents, you then insert a blank DVD so it can write what it has copied.
